Flood situation is worsening rapidly while waterborne diseases are spreading in some areas. People are already battered by Covid-19 and river erosion is taking devastating turn in some regions, said Ramesh Singh, CARE Bangladesh\'s country director. The organization initiated response and recovery as it is working closely with the government functionaries to help it address the ongoing floods, through distribution of nearly 3,000 dignity kits to flood affected women and girls of reproductive age and the transgender community in Kurigram and Gaibandha districts. In some inundated locations, CARE has built drum raft to ensure uninterrupted mobility for people to move faster.
