Description :
“We have a problem in South Sudan. People think that since the country’s very hot, the virus cannot survive. However, we have to let people know it’s false and give them the right information. Also, inhabitants of the camp have to face a lot of challenges. Physical distancing is impossible to practice, especially during food distribution and at the drinking water points”.
The overcrowded camp shelters at least 25,000 people who come from all over South Sudan. Measure to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 like physical distancing is not possible to practice, since there is no space. Up to 10 people live in a small tent and three share a mosquito net. Despite the pandemic, people don’t have any alternative but to stay there. Due to the ongoing conflict in some regions of the country, many cannot return to their place of origin.
