The parents of a child diarrhoea patient walk on the Feni Sadar Hospital premises with their daughter, who is on a drip. As many as 199 diarrhoea patients were admitted to the hospital as of 10:00am yesterday. Since the facility was at capacity, many patients could not be provided with a bed. Diarrhoea cases are on the rise in Feni as floodwaters are receding. Photo: Rajib Raihan

Although pedestrians cover their faces with their hands, it is not of much help to save themselves from the pollution. It can also be risky to cross the road in such a manner, with vehicles rushing towards them. The photo was taken yesterday. Photo: Rashed Shumon
