"I wonder whether any precautions have been taken against an epidemic. I'm also worried about the children's education. It's winter time over here and any day now it'll start snowing. It'll get really cold. What these people will do then, I don't know. For now, this situation is fine but I'm not very hopeful for the future."

STORYLINE:
Thousands of displaced earthquake victims in Ercis spent another night in makeshift tents supplied by the Turkish Red Crescent.
The bitter cold and rain and snow brought more hardship for the survivors in "Tent City" - the name given to their makeshift home.
"Tent City" lies just outside the eastern city, where thousands were left homeless after a powerful earthquake struck eastern Turkey last Sunday.
Its residents are thankful for the aid they have received so far.
But with winter - and bone-chilling temperatures - just around the corner, their makeshift living arrangement won't be enough to get them through the season.
Quake survivor Ahmet Can is also concerned about the spread of disease.
"I wonder whether any precautions have been taken against an epidemic," he said.
Others are still roaming the streets desperately searching for loved ones.
The Demir family was at "Tent City" to look for news of 29-year-old teacher Dursun Demir, who remains missing.
His older sister, Mihriban, said they got word that someone had sighted her brother, so they rushed to the tent camp to try to find him.
"At this point I'd even settle for his dead body. All I want is to be able to find him one way or another," she said, weeping.
The lost man's father, Kamil Demir, cried quietly as he held his son's picture close to his chest, hoping someone would lead him to his son.
As hopes dimmed for survivors still trapped under the rubble all, workers using excavators started clearing the rubble of collapsed buildings on Sunday.
The death toll of Sunday's quake now stands at 596 - most of those in Ercis, the area most devastated by the tremor.
Overall, some 230 people were rescued alive and 4,152 were injured in the 7.2 magnitude quake.
