Part 4/13:
A significant concern highlighted during the visit is the limited safety equipment and protections available to these volunteers. When responding to emergencies, especially infectious disease cases, the volunteers only have basic protection, such as simple spray disinfectants. They lack more sophisticated gear like masks, gloves, or hazmat suits, which underscores the need for enhanced safety protocols. The volunteers often work with minimal protection, making their role incredibly risky, especially in the context of ongoing health concerns like COVID-19.
