While the state government has shown a clear roadmap for the re-opening of the restaurants and cafes, it was not a plan for the sex industry. This uncertainty, coupled with the many unknowns surrounding The Virus itself, has a lot of sex workers with a deep fear.

Some of the sex workers were forced to work more, risking hefty fines, or exposure to The Virus .

"In developing countries, sex workers are often the main earner for the whole family, for your siblings, your children and their grandparents. So, this is the whole family," Prof Sanders acts says.

Niki Adams from the English collective of prostitutes, echoes the view. the majority of sex workers in Britain are the mothers-and if you continue to work, is it because they are desperate for money.

Some of the sex workers do not find themselves able to continue working - Even if you would choose.

Limited access to health services is a question of which sex workers worldwide, according to Prof Sanders. The Problem is particularly acute in areas where there is a high demand for regular anti-viral medication of those living with HIV.

"There are real problems of access," she says.

Prof Sanders works with a team in Nairobi to develop an "Uber-style" app, the supplied sex workers to allow the inside to drugs with their phones and have it.

"It is directly to you on a transport, but as the person who was just in The Clinic ," she says.

Back in the Daulatdia brothel, and other sex workers who don't want to be called, is the return from A Trip to see their daughter, who lives in a nearby home for The Children of sex workers.

Even if the brothel re-opened, it takes a long time for the industry to recover, she says.
