<p>Dear all,<br>
<br>
I hope this message finds you safe. I'm writing you to share my contribution to the blog COVID-19 from the Margins on how the Peruvian state is using social welfare databases to distribute financial support during the coronavirus crisis. Here is the teaser

</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The Peruvian tragedies are manifold. This blog post directs attention to one in particular related to the matter of counting during the pandemic. Although most of the debate focuses on how governments count the infected and the deceased, this post reflects
on how the Peruvian state counts the living to protect their wellbeing – and how it fails to do so.
