In the course of 6 months, BRC is to carry out a large-scale campaign with the financial support of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The activities are carried out mainly among the Roma population. BRC will provide personal hygiene packages to 30,000 socially-disadvantaged people affected by Covid-19. People will also receive information materials on the anti-epidemic measures adopted against the spread of the virus, BTA informs.
