there are no food banks here D:
there is some governmental help to the families though

Start a movement to get food banks in Brazil!
We have government programs to help people with food. They are called food stamps here and it's when the government gives you some money every month for you to go and buy food and there are some restrictions. But you have to prove that you need them, and with so many people applying this year it took weeks or months for some people to get it.
Food banks are same day, you just go to one and they will help you. You don't have to prove it with papers or anything

that's very nice.
I help with my city, a group of people goes out to give a 'monthly food basket' in some areas.

I think that both are good and both are needed. The poor can't just rely on charity, that doesn't work. But sometimes with the government it's not enough or it's too slow, but it's constant once you get it.

Yeah, it sucks bc we elected a mayor that wants to keep all business open besides us having zero icu space for covid....

That's awful. That is happening some places in the US too. It's horrible.
CA ran out of ICU space a month ago and is only now getting some of it back. Places like Texas and Florida have been horrible because they just don't care and let people do whatever they want.
