Abstract
This dataset was collected as a complement to UN Global Pulse, UNHCR, Durham University, WHO and OCHA's study on simulation models to help with COVID-19 planning in world’s largest refugee settlement. The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 presents many challenges to healthcare systems and infrastructures across the world, exacerbating inequalities and leaving the world’s most vulnerable populations most affected. Given their density and available infrastructure, refugee and internally displaced person (IDP) settlements can be particularly susceptible to disease spread. This survey collected data on individual's contact, interactions and time spent in public zones of refugees' camps in Cox's Bazar, in order to fill spreading matrices to inform this simulation of spread.
