The workers are some of the thousands slaving away on the FIFA World Cup infrastructure projects.
Qatar “labor camps” are being locked down by authorities and workers with coronavirus concentrated inside them are in conditions that deny them basic human rights. According to a report at the Guardian, hundreds of construction workers now have the virus amid the global pandemic and Qatar’s policies of concentrating the people  together in “squalid,over-crowded camps” enables the virus to “spread  rapidly.”
The workers are some of the thousands slaving away on the FIFA World Cup infrastructure projects. “Inside the quarantined  camps, workers  describe an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty,” the report notes. Workers are being put  on unpaid leave and it is getting worse by the day. Labor camps where the coronavirus sufferers are concentrated are given numbers within Qatar’s expansive gulag of workers camps. “Workers from camp 1 to camp 32 are in lockdown,” one man from Bangladesh said to the Guardian.
