“The price of food has doubled. We have to collect scraps to feed our children. If not, we die of hunger. If the coronavirus does not kill us, hunger definitely will,” says Shayista Gul, 60.

#2: Decline in aid

Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, many countries have been under lockdowns, and humanitarian organisations have been operating under strict restrictions. As a result, 28 per cent of survey respondents reported receiving less assistance from NGOs or governments since March.

Less than seven per cent of respondents stated that they had received more assistance during the same period.

#3: Hunger

Even prior to the Covid-19 crisis, many displaced people and host communities were facing worrying levels of food insecurity. Now, nearly three quarters of respondents have had to cut the number of meals for their family since the pandemic started.

#4: Forced to move

Loss of income is also having a massive impact on people’s ability to secure housing. More than 7 out of 10 of respondents stated that they were struggling to pay rent and other basic housing costs, and 68 per cent said they were likely to move elsewhere because of a lack of work or income.

Almost half followed this up to say that they had been evicted from their homes since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

#5: Education at risk

Lockdowns and school closures in response to the Covid-19 pandemic have led to the largest disruption of education in history, affecting nearly 1.6 billion learners in over 190 countries, according to the UN. This has had a particular impact on those living in poor or rural areas, girls, people with disabilities and those who have been forced to flee their homes.

This is echoed by NRC’s experience in conflict-affected countries. In Afghanistan, for example, NRC found that children from poor communities have limited access to remote learning tools such as the internet, smart phones, or even electricity.

This is how we are helping children get through the pandemic.

Moreover, NRC research shows that the economic impacts of Covid-19, and the strain on family income, make it more likely that these children will not return to school. Of those we surveyed who had children, three quarters said that because of their economic situation they were less likely to send them to school.

  “The whole system is set up to bring the country to civil war, martial law and the end of the US. Either way you look at it, it’s going to bring the country down.

BS, the virus is only a computer model, you can’t catch it. You are most likely to die from silent weapons. Remember in the news that, Oh we are going to change the chemtrails to medicines that will help heal the planet? Well that did not happen, the onslaught continues and the toxins are still building in the soil and water. Electromagnetic and sound frequencies are everywhere. In the news a week ago was sections of real time mapping of ELF broadcasts and if you did not get it downloaded then search it on this site and take it down.
