Rumors can become widespread during a prolonged refuge stay and they are usually very disruptive.
Listen only to official information and refuse to pass on another person's speculations. When you arrive in the refuge, give your names and address to the refuge manager so that you can be located, if necessary. If you decide to leave the refuge, tell the refuge manager where you are going. This helps the management team by telling them how many people require services.
