Taiwan was speeding up its inoculation campaign on the island, and Tzu Chi had joined to help in the effort.<\/p><p>At the same moment, local Tzu Chi volunteers were busy in Brazil\u2019s most populous city, S\u00e3o Paulo. They were 11 time-zones behind Taiwan, so night had just fallen there. The volunteers were busy distributing meals to street people in the city center.<\/p><p>From March to May 2021, the daily number of COVID cases recorded in Brazil had ranged from 30,000 to 100,000. Knowing that the pandemic must have put the homeless in an even tighter spot, volunteers started a meal distribution project for them in June. Five volunteers usually travel together in a car for such distributions, bringing with them enough food and other supplies for 70 people, then walk the side streets to deliver the food, still warm, into the hands of the homeless.<\/p><p>\u201cIt\u2019s no use distributing uncooked food to them,\u201d said Chen Sou-yong (\u9673\u5b88\u6c38), head of Tzu Chi Brazil, as he explained why he and his fellow volunteers do not distribute the typical food packages they usually give out to other needy people. \u201cThey can\u2019t cook on the street, so we cook for them at home, box the food up, and deliver it to them.\u201d The volunteers distribute the food at night because street people are usually away at work during the day, and it is easier to find them at night.<\/p><p>Each portion of food the volunteers prepare is enough to feed 1.5 to two people. The boxed meals include bean paste, turmeric rice, noodles in tomato sauce, and potatoes. Such a meal is hearty enough to make a street person, who often goes hungry, feel full for a day. Volunteers are hoping that the extra calories and nutrition in the meals will strengthen the immune systems of the homeless and help them avoid becoming sick with COVID.<\/p><p>In addition to hot food, volunteers also distribute a special kind of \u201cblanket\u201d to help the homeless stay warm. Because they do not have fixed, permanent dwellings, they have to be prepared to move frequently with what belongings they have. Their stuff needs to be lightweight and portable. To accommodate this need, volunteers learned from the Internet how to make blankets for the homeless from Tetra Paks. Volunteers collect used Tetra Pak cartons, disassemble and wash them, then sew them into sheets large enough for a person to use. They sew ties onto the sheets too, so that the blankets can be easily rolled up, tied, and carried. This greatly decreases the chance that homeless persons will lose the sheets.<\/p><p>Even though such blankets aren\u2019t as durable as those made from regular textiles, they can provide protection from the rain and cold, so they are popular with the homeless.<\/p><p>Volunteers\u2019 weekly winter night distributions to the homeless have warmed the hearts of those in need and buoyed the spirits of the volunteers themselves. As they prepare the hot meals and sew the Tetra Pak blankets, they experience the joy of helping others. \u201cWe are night angels,\u201d volunteer Ester Ferreira da Silva shared on a messaging app. \u201cWe have infinite love and courage.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-29068a0d elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"29068a0d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1e71e8d1\" data-id=\"1e71e8d1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70fb5d0e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"70fb5d0e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!

For example, they held such distributions in Itaquaquecetuba, Francisco Morato, and the more remote Caucaia do Alto in April and May. Among those participating volunteers were two elementary school principals who had joined Tzu Chi and the teachers they had enlisted to help in the events.<\/p><p>\u201cAll schools are closed due to the pandemic,\u201d volunteer Chen Sou-yong said, \u201cbut principal Nadir Godoi offered her school [Escola Estadual Vereador Durval Evaristo dos Santos] for Tzu Chi to use as a distribution venue in Itaquaquecetuba.\u201d Chen lauded the principal for her philanthropic spirit, explaining that she not only introduced Tzu Chi to teachers in her school but also led them to grow vegetables in vacant lots in the school, cook the vegetables, and make packed meals to distribute to needy families along with Tzu Chi\u2019s packages of food items.<\/p><p>Claudineia Aparecida Nunes Pereira, who serves at Escola Municipal de Campininha in Caucaia do Alto, is another loving principal who cares for the well-being of needy students. Just last year, she paid a visit to Dharma Master Cheng Yen in Taiwan. She resonated with the Master\u2019s teaching, \u201cIf suffering people cannot come to us, we must go to them.\u201d It was in that spirit that the principal helped arrange for Tzu Chi to distribute 70 food packages to underserved students on May 12 this year, the same day the educational department was distributing textbooks to students.<\/p><p>The school\u2019s deputy principal, Elaine Sandero, is another educator who exemplifies love through her actions. Volunteer Chen said of her: \u201cShe has led young volunteers to make boxed meals in their homes and then drive for two hours to the city center of S\u00e3o Paulo to take part in our distributions to street people.\u201d<\/p><p>Brazil has ranked as one of the countries with the most confirmed coronavirus infections and deaths. Local Tzu Chi volunteers have worked hard for the past year to strike a balance between implementing their charity work and maintaining the requirements to prevent transmitting the virus. For example, they once spent seven days distributing just 61 food packages\u2014all because they needed to minimize the number of participants at each distribution site. Even though volunteers were taking all the necessary precautions, they had no choice but to suspend some major events. The risk was just too high. Volunteer Fang Li-zon (\u65b9\u9e97\u84c9) said, \u201cPrior to the pandemic, we\u2019d always set out in a large convoy of more than ten vehicles when visiting rural areas to conduct our free clinics.

A wide gap exists between the rich and the poor in Brazil. Private hospitals are expensive, and public ones suffer from inadequate resources. As a result, it is hard for the poor to receive quality medical treatment. It\u2019s no surprise that the medical services offered by Tzu Chi became very popular among locals as soon as they were launched.<\/p><p>The medical events started out on a small scale, with one radiologist and three or four dentists seeing patients in small churches, but the scope of services has since been greatly expanded. Such events\u2014before they were put on hold due to the pandemic\u2014were often staffed by more than one hundred physicians and support volunteers and attended by over 500 patients. The Tzu Chi medical team provides treatment in internal medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, ophthalmology (including fitting patients with eyeglasses), dentistry, psychiatry, and traditional Chinese medicine. Over time, volunteers have had to borrow larger spaces to use as event venues due to the large number of medical workers, support volunteers, and patients at each event, plus the space required by ultrasonic machines and equipment for dentistry and ophthalmology. The aforementioned school principals who became Tzu Chi volunteers joined the foundation because they had lent their schools to Tzu Chi to serve as free clinic venues.<\/p><p>Since March 2020, however, volunteers have had to suspend such large-scale medical events because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Even though Tzu Chi Brazil has received frequent requests to resume the services, volunteers have had to regretfully decline. \u201cPeople have been calling to ask when we are restarting our clinics,\u201d said volunteer Lin Her-shing (\u6797\u5408\u7701), who oversees Tzu Chi\u2019s medical work in Brazil. \u201cI always tell them we need to wait a while longer. The pandemic is still raging. It\u2019d be really bad if our medical events resulted in cluster infections.\u201d<\/p><p>Though the reason for suspending the clinics was valid, the services had been offered for more than two decades before they were forced to a sudden stop by the pandemic. The underserved had relied on them for a long time\u2014what are they to do during the interim? \u201cWe started an online free clinic this April to allow people to continue accessing our services,\u201d Fang Li-zon said. \u201cWe offer treatment in ophthalmology and psychiatry every week, and in internal medicine once every two weeks.\u201d<\/p><p>Chen Sou-yong added: \u201cOur doctors see patients via videoconferencing, then write prescriptions for them, which can be filled at a pharmacy. If a prescription involves antibiotics or other controlled medicines, we mail the medicines to the patient.\u201d<\/p><p>In addition to their regular charity work, Tzu Chi Brazil has also donated personal protective equipment (PPE) to local healthcare institutions to help protect medical professionals from the coronavirus. With the help of physicians of the Tzu Chi International Medical Association, an inquiry was made at the end of March 2020 to several major hospitals in the state of S\u00e3o Paulo whether they needed help with PPE. The inquiry revealed that the hospitals were suffering from a severe shortage of face masks, gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing. Among the hospitals included in the inquiry was Santa Casa de Miseric\u00f3rdia, founded over 400 years ago.<\/p><p>\u201cOur connection with Santa Casa started a long time ago,\u201d volunteer Chen Sou-yong said. \u201cOur Paraguay branch once referred two patients afflicted with elephantiasis to us for help, and we sent them to Santa Casa for treatment. This time, when we were organizing the donations of PPE, we asked the hospital to help us take care of some import procedures.\u201d<\/p><p>Thanks to the assistance of Santa Casa and Taiwan\u2019s Overseas Community Affairs Council, the first batch of PPE provided by Tzu Chi headquarters in Hualien, Taiwan, was distributed to seven medical institutions, nursing homes, and government health agencies in Brazil in May 2021. Of the donated items, 90,000 face masks, 6,000 pairs of gloves, and 3,300 protective garments were supplied to Santa Casa, which, of all the hospitals in Brazil, had admitted the largest number of patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Santa Casa administrators thanked Tzu Chi for extending aid to them all the way from Taiwan, saying that the protective gear would help safeguard their staff and enhance their sense of security, thus enabling them to put up a better fight against the daunting coronavirus.<\/p><p>Volunteers in Brazil have since done their best to meet the local need for PPE. The world has now lived with COVID for more than one and a half years, but none of the volunteers have yet dared let down their guard\u2014they know what they are up against. But they are beginning to face the future with guarded optimism because of the rollout of COVID vaccines.<\/p><p>Volunteer Lin Her-shing explained that most of the local COVID patients previously rushed to the ER or admitted into hospitals were over 60, and that they often died a few days after checking into a hospital. But the situation greatly improved after the government started vaccinating older people. Using the state of S\u00e3o Paulo as an example, he said that the mortality rate of older COVID patients decreased from 60 percent to 20 percent after the vaccination program was launched.<\/p><p>Having witnessed firsthand how the vaccines reduce COVID severity and the death rate, Lin has urged his friends and fellow volunteers in Taiwan to be sure to get their shots, and to take whatever vaccine is made available to them first.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-55508d38 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"55508d38\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1087dbc7\" data-id=\"1087dbc7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4dc7d7bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4dc7d7bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/IMG_04481_A2276825-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/IMG_04481_A2276825-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/IMG_04481_A2276825-\u54f2\u4fee-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/IMG_04481_A2276825-\u54f2\u4fee-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/IMG_04481_A2276825-\u54f2\u4fee-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c691a77 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6c691a77\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Volunteers from Tzu Chi Brazil donated personal protective equipment to the municipal government of Cotia in the state of S\u00e3o Paulo on June 12, 2020. <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>Lin Jin-man<\/em><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-16ab79a5 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"16ab79a5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e92645a elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e92645a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9d13291\" data-id=\"9d13291\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6624522 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6624522\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Properly protected<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4edaef6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4edaef6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Looking back over the past year, both Chen Sou-yong and Fang Li-zon felt the frustration of trying to get people in Brazil to wear masks. And it isn\u2019t just the general public\u2014politicians do not take masking well either.<\/p><p>Lin Her-shing pointed out that when the pandemic situation was at its most serious in Brazil, all the major hospitals in S\u00e3o Paulo were jam-packed with seriously ill COVID patients\u2014the wards, the emergency rooms, and even the hallways overflowed with patients. The government had no choice but to set up field hospitals for people with milder symptoms. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t until someone around them was hospitalized that they realized the severity of the situation,\u201d Lin said of the general Brazilians\u2019 reaction to COVID.<\/p><p>Lin said that at the time his relatives in Taiwan were very worried about him and his family and urged them to return to Taiwan. But considering the risks they might face if they should take the trip, they eventually decided to stay. Even so, they were full of anxiety about the uncertain future, not knowing how the pandemic was going to develop. \u201cMy wife often suffered from insomnia as a result and complained about all kinds of aches and pains,\u201d said Lin. \u201cShe eventually had to consult a psychiatrist. But things have greatly improved since then, as we know better now how to protect ourselves against the coronavirus and as vaccines have become available to us.\u201d Despite his optimistic tone, he said that this past year has really left a mark on them and created unforgettable memories for all the Tzu Chi volunteers in the country.<\/p><p>With a population of 210 million, Brazil has recorded more than 500,000 deaths from the coronavirus, second only to the United States. On the bright side, more than 145 million doses of COVID vaccines have been administered in the nation, and the rate of vaccination is still increasing. The growing vaccination coverage is helping to fight the pandemic more than anything. Lin sincerely hopes that the increasing inoculation rate can lower the number of COVID cases to such an extent that schools can reopen. When the pandemic is successfully curbed, the first thing he and his fellow volunteers want to do is restart the large-scale free clinics, bringing much needed medical care to the underserved in Brazil.<\/p><p>Such clinics, Tzu Chi\u2019s hallmark of \u201clove-in-action,\u201d will herald a new dawn after the long, dark night of the pandemic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5ee8e90 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5ee8e90\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2e8dd1c\" data-id=\"2e8dd1c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-656ef22 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"656ef22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/\u53d7\u707d\u6236\u9678\u7e8c\u524d\u4f86\u9818\u53d6\u7269\u8cc7\uff0c\u907f\u514d\u7fa4\u805a\u505a\u597d\u9632\u79a6\u63aa\u65bd-\u54f2\u4fee-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2866a4c\" data-id=\"2866a4c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58b02c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58b02c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Volunteers delivered daily necessities to a community in Itapevi, S\u00e3o Paulo state, on January 31, 2021.
