<p>Bangladesh&nbsp;authorities on Thursday imposed a lockdown in five&nbsp;Rohingya&nbsp;refugee&nbsp;camps&nbsp;in the country's southeast&nbsp;after&nbsp;a&nbsp;spike&nbsp;in <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/coronavirus">coronavirus</a> cases in recent days, officials said.</p>

<p>"We imposed the restrictions from today&nbsp;after&nbsp;sudden spikes in coronavirus cases in the five&nbsp;camps," he said, adding Wednesday saw a single-day record in new infections.</p>

<p>Bangladesh&nbsp;authorities have set up 34&nbsp;camps&nbsp;in the country's southeastern district of Cox's Bazar for nearly 900,000&nbsp;Rohingya&nbsp;refugees, who fled persecution and violence in Myanmar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>They included some 740,000&nbsp;Rohingya&nbsp;refugees who fled a deadly Myanmar military offensive in August 2017.</p>

<p>Douza said aid workers have been restricted in the&nbsp;camps, allowing only a bare minimum people who work in health, food and gas distribution to enter.</p>

<p>On Wednesday alone, 45&nbsp;Rohingya&nbsp;tested positive for the&nbsp;virus&nbsp;out of 247 tested, said local health coordinator Toha Bhuiyan. The same number was also tested positive on Thursday.</p>

Intestine, kidney among several organs that can get infected by COVID-19: Study

<p>Two countries that have been widely held up as examples of how to handle a pandemic -- South Korea and Germany -- are now in the enviable position of being able to ease restrictions imposed to curb the spread of coronavirus.</p>

<p>South Korea had the largest outbreak outside of China in February. But the country used a combination of widespread testing,&nbsp;a strict quarantine regime and contact tracing to contain the coronavirus without having to impose a widespread lockdown.</p>

<p>Germany, on the other hand, had its advanced diagnostics industry at play. It was, hence, able to conduct mass testing from early on. Its coronavirus response was widely seen as a success story in Europe.</p>

<p>But both countries, as soon as they began relaxing its social distancing rules, had to trace back a few of its steps owing to new outbreaks -- underscoring the dangers authorities face as they try to reopen their economies.</p>

<p><strong>SOUTH KOREA</strong></p>

<p>The South Korean government on Wednesday started to relax its strict social distancing rules, imposed on March 22, but only in line with a set of guidelines referred to as the distancing in daily life policy.</p>

<p>South Korea's baseball season resumed on Tuesday -- but with games played in empty stadiums, while umpires and base coaches wore masks.</p>

<p>According to AFP, children will start to return to school from May 13. They have been told to wipe their desk and wear a mask except for at mealtimes and maintain double arm's length distance when you are on the move or are standing in line.</p>

<p>But outbreaks at nightclubs undid a lot of effort by the people and the government.</p>

<p>Seoul closed down more than 2,100 bars and other nightspots on Saturday because of a new cluster of coronavirus infections.</p>

<p>Many of the infections were linked to a 29-year-old man who visited three nightclubs before testing positive.</p>

<p><strong>GERMANY</strong></p>

<p>Germany has also been taking a step-by-step approach to reopening for business.</p>

<p>Limits on social contact would remain in place until June 5, but people can meet each other. Shops can open but with&nbsp;hygiene measures.</p>

<p>Germany's top football league, the Bundesliga, will resume play from May 16 -- but under tight restrictions and without spectators.</p>

<p>The legendary Sunil Gavaskar on Tuesday donated Rs 59 lakh, while Test regular Cheteshwar Pujara also made an unspecified contribution to the PM-CARES fund, joining the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic which has claimed over 100 lives in India.</p>

<p>Pujara joined skipper Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, and Kedar Jadhav, who are among the current set of cricketers to make significant contributions. Among former players, Sachin Tendulkar is among the most notable contributors.</p>

<p>Gavaskar, who is now a sought after commentator and analyst of the game, did not reveal the contribution himself but a source close to him confirmed after former Mumbai skipper Amol Mujumdar tweeted the same.</p>

<p>"Just heard that SMG has donated 59 lakhs towards covid relief fund. 35 to @PMCaresFunds n 24 lakhs to @CMOMaharashtra. Thumbs up superb gesture Sir," Mujumdar said.</p>

<p>Pujara, on his part, thanked all the front-line warriors including doctors, para medical staff, and police, who are doing selfless service at this critical juncture.</p>

<p>"My family &amp; I have contributed our bit to the PM-CARES Fund and the Gujarat CM Relief Fund, and hope that you will to.</p>

<p>"Every single contribution counts, so let us all do our bit and together we will certainly overcome," Pujara stated.</p>

<p>"We would like to convey our deepest gratitude to all the front line warriors - medical professionals, police men/women, grocery staff, and so many others - for their dedication, courage and sacrifices in serving our nation and humanity," he added.</p>

<p>The novel coronavirus has killed thousands of people around the world as it continues to spread rapidly across borders. In the United States, optimism is fading with the increasing number of cases and, the medical fraternity struggling under pressure to treat the virus.</p>

<p>There are reports that the healthcare system may face a possible shortage of ventilators and protective gear. Despite, the roadblock for recovery, doctors and medical practitioners are constantly working around the clock to save as many lives as possible.</p>

<p>But, these same doctors who are on the front lines of the battle against coronavirus, are not being treated with respect.</p>

<p>In New York, doctors had to increase security in their hospitals because people trashed their lobbies, cursed nurses spat and coughed on the faces of other medical practitioners out of intense pressure and anger.</p>

<p>&nbsp;"Well, there are some people who are coming in, and this is what really adds to the complexity of things, they're coming in and they're hostile to our front desk, we've had people trash our lobbies, cursing, spitting, coughing on the faces of my employees if they don't get what they want. We've had to ramp up security. It's a whole deal," said Dr JD Zipkin, Associate Medical Director for Northwell Health Care.</p>

<p>Increased quarantine measures and the growing number of patients have taken a toll on the mental well-being of both patients and doctors as well. Some doctors have also admitted to having cried at the end of their shifts.</p>

<p>&nbsp;"Healthcare workers are not an unlimited resource. We get sick, too; And at a certain point, we're gonna have a problem if the doctors aren't well and can't take care of people.
