The aim is to highlight the autonomous actions of these indigenous peoples to contain the new coronavirus in their territories. The first cases of indigenous contagion occurred in slaughterhouses and sugar-alcohol plants.

These large agribusiness enterprises are historically responsible for the deterritorialization of habitats that create conflicts between human and non-human beings, and during the pandemic they became Covid-19 transmission sites for indigenous workers. It is possible to affirm that the pandemic has reaffirmed, on the one hand, the permanence of the coloniality of the racist power matrix by the accentuation of the territorial vulnerability of the Guarani and Kaiowá, and, on the other hand, it highlights the decolonization of practices on health and disease, highlighting the autonomous movement of confronting the spread of Covid-19 in the villages by the articulation of actions on multiple spatial scales. Este artículo analiza la organización territorial de los guaraníes y los kaiowás contra la pandemia de Covid-19 en el estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, en la frontera de Brasil con Paraguay. Se trata de poner de relieve las acciones autónomas de estos pueblos indígenas para contener el nuevo coronavirus en sus territorios. Los primeros casos de contagio autóctono se produjeron en mataderos y fábricas de azúcar y alcohol. Estas actividades en las zonas urbanas y agroindustriales no paralizaron sus actividades de producción y explotación de trabajadores indígenas durante la pandemia. Estas grandes empresas agroindustriales son históricamente responsables de la desterritorialización de los hábitats que crean conflictos entre seres humanos y no humanos, y durante la pandemia se convirtieron en espacios de transmisión Covid-19 para los trabajadores indígenas. Se puede afirmar que la pandemia ha reafirmado, por un lado, la permanencia de la colonialidad de la matriz de poder racista al acentuar la vulnerabilidad territorial de los guaraníes y los kaiowá, y, por otro lado, muestra la descolonización de las prácticas en materia de salud y enfermedad, destacando el movimiento autónomo de enfrentamiento a la propagación del Covid-19 en las aldeas mediante la articulación de acciones en múltiples escalas espaciales.
