Updated 2020.05.15 12:40 GMT+8

The World Health Organization confirmed the first cases of coronavirus in Bangladesh refugee camps, home to more than one million Rohingya. A Rohingya refugee and a local resident have been taken to an isolation center after testing positive. Aid workers have warned of a potential humanitarian disaster as the camps are more densely populated than most crowded cities, and no intensive care beds are available.
