Bethel hospital places covid patients in overflow housing.
BETHEL, Alaska -- The Alaska Native Medical Center, which specializes in health care for Alaska Native and American Indian people in the state, says it is now over capacity with coronavirus patients.
The center says it had to open an alternate care site to handle overflow.
The hospital’s Acting Administrator Dr. Robert Onders said during a virtual town hall on Monday that the critical care unit is so flooded that it cannot hold all the hospital’s most seriously ill patients
About 20% of coronavirus patients at the hospital require critical care. Onders said he expects the hospital’s situation to worsen.
The Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region had the highest coronavirus case rate in the state as of Tuesday with about 273 cases per 100,000 people across the region on Tuesday

And fishermen.
Chloe-Louise Chesswas, 29, prefers to be known as a fisherman and says the politically correct alternative will never catch on. Chloe-Louise is believed to be one of just six female fishermen in Britain and has been doing the job for three years. The 5ft 4in mother of two is a deckhand and potter on a crab potting boat based out of Salcombe, Devon. But she said the term championed by the BBC would not catch on and that, if anything, it took away from equality. “I am 100 per cent a fisherman. There is no such thing as a fisherwoman. We are all fishermen. “It is a gender neutral word

Federal Judge over rules state of Alaska and grants special hunt to natives needing food.
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — A judge has ruled that the federal government was correct in allowing a southeast Alaska tribe to organize an out-of-season hunt because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy's administration sued to block future hunts, arguing that permitting a special moose and deer hunt this summer was overreach by federal authorities, CoastAlaska reported Monday.

Washington, November 19, 2020
WASHINGTON, D.C.— U.S. Senators Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan and U.S. Congressman Don Young, all R-Alaska, filed an amicus curiae brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to grant the petition for a writ of certiorari in support of Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs) eligibility for tribal assistance appropriated by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The amicus brief states that the indigenous peoples of Alaska will suffer severe negative consequences as a result of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals’ September 25, 2020 decision, which held that ANCs are ineligible for CARES Act tribal coronavirus relief funding. The Alaska Congressional Delegation argued the decision should be reversed, citing decades old precedent and federal Indian law which supports ANCs eligibility for this funding. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit’s September ruling overturned an earlier June 26 ruling by a U.S. District Court that concluded ANCs are eligible for the aid.
“We worked hard to secure funding within the CARES Act to provide emergency-relief funds to 'Indian tribes' as defined by the Indian Self-Determination Education and Assistance Act—which includes Alaska regional or village corporations—to help provide the maximum benefit to all indigenous people to help overcome the impacts of COVID-19. The ruling by the D.C. Circuit deeming ANCs as ineligible for this critical funding is unacceptable as it goes against the language of ANCSA, ISDEAA, and the CARES Act, erasing more than 45 years of precedent, with the potential to undo the tribal systems of healthcare, education, housing, and more,” said the delegation. “The pandemic is hitting Alaska Native villages hard with COVID cases continuing to rise. We stand with the ANCs who are fighting for the health and safety of all Alaska Native

Ran enters new ownership begins to schedual flights throughout alaska...
Rehiring assets.
Ravn Alaska plans to resume flights between Aniak and Anchorage the first week of January 2021.
The airline shut down after declaring bankruptcy this summer, and has entered new ownership. Ravn is currently flying to six communities in the state.
Aniak will be the first destination added in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Ravn CEO Rob McKinney said that the flight schedule will be Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, landing in Aniak just before noon, and departing shortly afterwards. Passengers can plan on flying in a Dash 8 aircraft.
McKinney said that Ravn plans to hire five employees in Aniak, and is in the process of rehiring formerly laid-off Ravn workers.
The airline plans to resume flights to Bethel and St. Mary’s as well, but those dates are not yet set.
