“Hello! I am a virus, cousins with the flu and the common cold. My name is coronavirus,” says the cover of this 12-page publication produced by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami to help explain COVID-19 to Inuit children. You can find the publication, written in the Inuit language in both syllabics and roman orthography, as well as in English, at ITK’s website.

    Is there anyone on the world who does not realize that there
    is a deadly COVID — 19 virus going around ?
    Or is it only with the GN, DEPT. of HEALTH ?
    Certain staff members in nursing stations &r in elder care
    facilities are not allowed to wear face masks ??????
    Even a homemade mask made from layers of cloth and
    washed out in the evening is a lot better than nothing !!!!
