Toshao Learmond Emmanuel is worried that the indigenous community of Waramuri will become the next COVID-19 hotspot in Region One after three persons who were infected with the virus died days apart from each other.
Waramuri is close to communities like Santa Rosa, Kwebanna and Manawarin, all of which have recorded cases of COVID-19.
The COVID-19 fatalities from Waramuri have been identified as Calvin Abrams, a former pastor, his brother, Carl Abrams, a former teacher, and Lloyd Moses, 92. They were residents of an island called Haimacabra, which is located in Waramuri.
