The UK has provided support to international organisations working in the camps on a range of issues, including healthcare, and will continue to do so. We understand that the Greek Government is continuing to implement its national Coronavirus action plan specifically for migrant camps across the country. This includes measures to reduce the risks to migrants on the islands as well as the mainland, such as strengthening health facilities. We continue to monitor the situation via our Embassy in Athens very closely.
