beans, oil and so on. But that still does not earn us enough. I frequently face difficulties in providing meals. My children are demanding fish, beef and fruits, but I can't treat them. No one helps me with going to the market or buying medicines, and I feel helpless. At times, Covid-19 has affected the livelihood of patients who stay in quarantine/ isolation centres, by rendering them unable to provide for their families or seek humanitarian assistance. This is particularly a problem in times of greater need: monsoon season, for example, often causes shelter damage. According to a 45year-old laborer living in Camp 1W, who stayed in an isolation centre during his bout with the virus: No one else in my shelter does any business activities; I am the only one doing something for my family and I have been struggling to earn money as a daily laborer. During the days I was in the isolation centre, there was heavy rain with strong wind that destroyed my shelter. I went to the Camp in Charge’s (CiC) office in Camp 1W three times, requesting shelter materials. But I still did not get any support. What shall I do? I don't have any income right now. Camp marketplaces and the vendors that work in them have been particularly affected by the economic impacts of the pandemic. A 42-year-old shopkeeper in Camp 2W explained that: The virus has caused big changes in my livelihood. I was in a good situation before, earning money by selling textiles in a shop in the Lambashia Bazar of Kutupalong camp. My daily earnings were 5,000 to 8,000 taka, from which I got an average of 800 to 1200 taka as profit. Now, it has totally decreased due to Coronavirus. I now only earn 300 taka per day by selling items at my shop. I can't help my relatives now - it is even not enough for my family. A 35-year-old housewife in Camp 1E explained the impacts of Covid-19 on her family’s ability to eat a balanced diet: Yes, of course Covid-19 impacts our livelihood. Since the virus appeared in the camps, neither have we bought any nonessential items to consume, nor seen a single penny of income. My family is just surviving off the rations given by NGOs, as my husband can't find any work now. Before the lockdown, my husband could work somehow, so we could eat meat and fish. But now it seems impossible to buy meat or fish. 11
