The American Nation With Real Leadership
By 
The United States may have dumpster fire leadership. But at least the Navajo Nation has figured out COVID-19.
Earlier this year, the Navajo Nation Reservation was a major hot spot for coronavirus cases. Now, it’s seen a day without a single positive case.
It’s a turning point in its battle against the virus. Navajo Nation President Jonathan Nez attributes that to Navajo leaders and citizens heeding the advice of public health officials.
“All we did as leaders and public health professionals is we accepted [the] recommendations from the CDC, NIH,” Nez says. “We took one step more, putting those recommendations into public health emergency orders, making them law.”
A few new cases have popped up on the Navajo Nation since last week, when it reported a 24-hour period without any. In May, its per capita infection rate was one of the highest in the country.
Donald Trump has a case to be the single worst leader in the entire world, particularly when adjusted for context of what the leader walked into.
