(AFP) Social distancing is an alien concept in the Moria camp on the Greek island of Lesbos, as thousands of refugees jostle in the queues for toilets and showers.
International recommendations on how best to avoid contracting or passing on the coronavirus can seem light years away — only a handful of people wear masks, but even those are often homemade.
“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.
Greece has ordered confinement for all migrant camps to prevent the spread of the coronavirus — and the 19,000 asylum seekers crammed into Moria are more at risk than most.
