Amid the rows of tin-shed houses and bamboo fences that make up the Rohingya camps in Bangladesh\u2019s coastal district of Cox’s Bazar, people are living in fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We live in shanties. Look at how tiny the [houses] are. We had not heard of the coronavirus\u2026 but an army man came to us and asked us to use masks, wash hands and maintain social distance \u2013 which is not possible for us. In such a murky situation only Allah is there to help us as he saved us from Myanmar’s Army,” said Mohammed Younus a resident from Balukhali, one of the 34 camps housing almost a million Rohingya refugees, who fled violence in Myanmar in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The global coronavirus pandemic has reached Bangladesh, with 54 confirmed cases<\/a> as of April 2, 2020. There has been one case of Covid-19 in the local community of Cox\u2019s Bazaar, so it is only a matter of time before the virus spreads to refugee camps, where aid workers warn that thousands of people will die<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent report by Refugees International on the situation paints a grim picture. “There are nearly 900,000 refugees living in the camps in Cox\u2019s Bazar and more than 400,000 Bangladeshis living in close proximity to them,” it says. “Cramped living conditions, poor water quality and patchy access to healthcare in the camps leave refugees vulnerable to disease. A recent humanitarian risk assessment of the Rohingya response warned that the potential mortality and morbidity risk associated with COVID-19 is likely to surpass global averages.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lockdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bangladesh has put all 34 Rohingya refugee settlements into lockdown as part of its effort to stem the coronavirus pandemic. On March 23 the Refugee Relief and Repatriation Commission (RRRC)<\/a> announced camp operations must be minimised to slow the spread of Covid-19. From mass gatherings, to handing over shelter kits and joint registration, all activities have stopped apart from Covid-19 awareness sessions and mental health services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authorities have asked more than one million members<\/a> of the Rohingya community to stay inside their camps until further notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bangladesh government and aid groups are also trying to boost awareness regarding health, hygiene and immunity in the camps in preparation for an outbreak. This is being done primarily through the Majhis, or Rohingya community leaders, to spread awareness about the need to maintain social distance, hand washing and use of masks. Established at the very beginning of the influx in 2017, the number of Majhis varies from 30 to 50 depending on the population of the blocks in camps, said Mahfuzur Rahman, one of the workers in charge of a camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Even though camps are densely populated, it is possible to fight coronavirus through spreading awareness,\u201d said Mohammed Mahabubur Rahman, a civil surgeon in Cox’s Bazar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo fight the situation, we have a team of ten members and we have prepared two isolation wards with 50 beds each in Ramu Upazila Health Complex and Chokoria Upazila Health Complex,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But these numbers are paltry for the over one million people living in Cox\u2019s Bazar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the idea of self-isolation in the camp is a joke. And social distancing is a privilege that none of the residents of the densely populated Rohingya camps can afford. People also don\u2019t have access to the water needed to wash their hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Six of us live in one shanty. Schools are closed now. The whole day I am either cooking for the family or studying. I know about the coronavirus and as a precaution I use a mask and try to wash hands regularly. Some people have come to us and given hand wash and sanitiser, but the water supply is limited,” said 19-year-old Hafsa from Kutupalong camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tightening the noose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Bangladesh government\u2019s internet ban has made the situation worse. Internet access has been shut down since September 2019 for \u201csecurity purposes\u201d. But this has restricted the ability of the refugees to communicate and access information, as well as access entertainment – TV, radio, films, social media –  that would keep people busy during the lockdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social media could have played a vital role in spreading awareness but the internet restrictions makes this impossible. One local journalist, who preferred to remain anonymous, said, “It is inhuman the way the Rohingya people are living in camps. It is not possible to spread awareness thoroughly because of the restriction on the internet\u2026who is there to listen to these miseries?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report by Refugees International added another fear, \u201cUN officials privately warn that they anticipate major problems in managing the spread of the virus inside their own international workforce, much less across the refugee population. The government of Bangladesh is allowing only essential services to reach the camps, undermining efforts to address food insecurity and cyclone preparedness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Women and children trapped<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now that the camps are in lockdown and men are sitting at home rather than going out to work, some women and children are left even more vulnerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Now that the women-led community centres and friendly spaces<\/a> for children and adolescents are closed, the rate of gender-based violence, sexual abuse and child abuse will increase immensely,\u201d said Zubaida Nasreen, an associate professor at the University of Dhaka\u2019s department of anthropology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe situation is disturbing. Rohingya people are anxious too and they don\u2019t have much work to do. Such anxiety could increase stress levels and fuel sexual violence and cases of child abuse inside the camps,” she explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Rohingya woman said, “I have no idea about the virus. My husband is a day labourer and mostly stays at home these days. He is worried and said that the disease is coming into the camp. He commanded [us] to pray regularly.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

National crisis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bangladesh is poorly equipped to weather the coronavirus pandemic. The country does not have enough hospital beds and personal protective equipment (PPE). There are only 45 intensive care unit (ICU) beds and 45 ventilators prepared for Covid-19 patients in capital Dhaka. The Central Medical Depot has 160 more ventilators in stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even in Dhaka doctors are struggling with a lack of PPE. According to reports, hospitals in and outside Dhaka have notified doctors to collect their own PPE as the national supply is limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are concerns that people in the camps are already in too poor health to ward off the coronavirus. Access to water and proper housing are among their dire needs. Most important, the government should provide access to proper isolation centres, equipment and trained health care representatives. As the Refugees International report noted, the lack of trust in government authorities, or credible communications, has limited the rise of leadership among the Rohingya, and that may be desperately needed in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
