Mutual Aid and Hacking Covid-19

COVID-19 is a virus that affects people’s respiratory systems. While in around 8o% of cases the symptoms will be mild, it has lead to a large number of deaths internationally. It is estimated that 2-3 people out of a hundred who contract the virus will die. This can easily mean hundreds of thousands of deaths in the UK alone. We must do everything we can to prevent this from happening.

As Covid-19 becomes more than a health crisis and turns into a crisis of capitalism, with workers being laid off and health systems stretched to the limit, CODED GEOGRAPHY are working within our communities to help build mutual aid networks and support the wider tech activist respond. Those with hacking and home manufacturing skills can play an important role. See the resources below and get involved.
