As Greece orders confinement for all refugee camps to prevent the spread of Covid-19, asylum seekers at Lesvos' Moria camp fear of contracting the virus
Migrants and refugees carry bags with food as they walk past piles of garbage at a makeshift camp next to the Moria camp on the Greek island of Lesvos on April 2, 2020.
"What is the point of wearing a mask when I share the same toilet as 100 other people?" asks Hasmad, 36, from Kabul as he lines up to use a tap. "Eight countries have said they are prepared" to take in unaccompanied minors, she said on German ZDF public television, without naming them, or revealing how many children Luxembourg was willing to take in.
"We tell them to stay away from each other but when we see the queues, it's impossible," Afghan doctor Ahmand Sina Taha, who works for the NGO Kitrinos, tells AFP. Pathologist Nassos Galis points out that if the virus appears in the camp, it will not be via the refugees. On Friday, the International Organization for Migration urged the government to accelerate these transfers because with overcrowding on the islands it is "very difficult to take preventive measures".
