The Pandemic and YOU

How do you think safety measures are enforced in refugee camps? What do you think the quality of medical care is like in refugee camps? Do you think refugee camps have an adequate amount of quality medical supplies, such as masks, hand sanitizers, and ventilators?

Refugees

People in refugee camps face a greater threat from COVID-19. Refugee camps’ dense population and squalid conditions make it harder to social distance, lockdown, and quarantine. For perspective, consider that the world’s largest refugee camp in Bangladesh has nearly a million people and no Intensive Care Units to care for the sick (International Rescue Committee 2020Paul 2020).
