It's not this. After all to get CERB you need to show how you've been put out of work due to covid 19. How do you do this when you have no job or fixed address? How do you do this if you're a sex worker selling sex for survival and your occupation is illegal?
A side effect of covid19 is that drugs have become more scarce and expensive due to the border shutdown. This may be having an impact.
