https://www.worldvisionadvocacy.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/W045-0037-086_Medium_res.jpg1200675Between August 2 and 7, Barco Solidariedade (Solidarity Boat) made its second trip in response to the call for the emergency of COVID-19 in the Brazilian Amazon. In this mission, more than 500 families from 12 riverside communities were served along the Solimões River, in the state of Amazonas. In normal situations, the boat, maintained by World Vision Brazil and the Presbyterian Church of Manaus, has medical and dental care on the premises, receiving as many patients as possible. With the pandemic, assistance on the boat needed to be limited to emergencies and trips started to include the distribution of basic food baskets, hygiene and personal protection kits, oral hygiene kits and lectures on COVID-19, oral hygiene and prevention of violence against women, children and adolescents.
