摘要：● Global disease trackers quantifying the size, spread, and distribution of COVID-19 illustrate the power of data during the pandemic. ● Data are required for decision-making, planning, mitigation, surveillance, and monitoring the equity of responses. ● There are dual concerns about the availability and suppression of COVID-19 data; due to historic and ongoing racism and exclusion, publicly available data can be both beneficial and harmful. ● Systemic policies related to genocide and racism, and historic and ongoing marginalization, have led to limitations in quality, quantity, access, and use of Indigenous Peoples’ COVID-19 data. ● Governments, non-profits, researchers, and other institutions must collaborate with Indigenous Peoples on their own terms to improve access to and use of data for effective public health responses to COVID-19.
