Now this is a guy who had suffered through real hardship in life. Six of his 10 siblings died of smallpox in childhood. This was like in the 1930s/1940s. Meanwhile we freak out over SARS-CoV-2? lmao. 86 years old is probably well above the average life expectancy for an indigenous man. I'm happy that he had a good run and didn't die young like many indigenous people. It's crazy to think about how many people (especially indigenous) people used to die from things like smallpox.
