give treatment when patients have big problems that are unclear to me. When that happens I feel very very bad. One thing I want to add is that I use good communication, show empathy and take time to care for each of my patients. As shown in the commentary above, unlicensed health practitioners may recognize their lack of formal medical qualification but tend to defend their practices on the basis that they are affordable and available to community members, who can trust them to listen. At the same time, these practitioners’ perceptions of the spread of Covid-19 were often out of step with official statistics and reports on the virus. (5) Concerns to share with humanitarian agencies and other actors responding to the pandemic As with the earlier ‘Flash Report’, many community members interviewed about Covid-19 mentioned their strong desire to return home to Myanmar as soon as possible. One man requested the government of Bangladesh to “make a bridge to cross the Naf river safely for us with a good solution.” In the shorter term, one of the most frequent requests documented by the research team was for more open movement access within the camps. Many respondents also requested access to education, both religious and academic, as well as restored internet access to enable communication with relatives in Myanmar, overseas, and on Bhasan Char. Others made a general request for better healthcare services. Most community members who were interviewed requested supplies that can help them protect themselves from Covid-19, including masks, soap and hand sanitizer. Some advised that isolation facilities should be available in each camp for the sake of greater accessibility and community trust. Others said that more handwashing stations are needed throughout the camps. Increased attention to waste management and latrine hygiene were also seen as important measures for improving camp health overall. Many people also requested increased outreach and awareness raising, particularly door-to-door by Rohingya volunteers, to educate people in the camps about the details of the virus. One unlicensed health practitioner participating in a focus group discussion (FGD) asked for NGOs to hire and train him and other such practitioners to enable their formal integration into the camp health system. 18
