People at camp slowly have changed their living style. Shirajul Islam from kutupalong camp said, “ Restrictions on movement from one camp to another, dropping of employment rate, unable to do businesses everywhere have changed our lifestyle. But I also believe that the only way to prevent this virus is to follow the Governments rule. We are given ration food from World Food Program (WFP). But this is not sufficient for us to maintain our livings. We need some extra money but because of restrictions on work opportunities we have no way to get that.But Majority are now well aware of the harm that the virus can do”.
