Calling 115 & Covid testing

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

Calling 115 & Covid testing

Post by talltuktuk »

Anyone called the hotline yet? Just curious as to what the process is when someone calls and how they go about determining who gets a test. BIL called in the beginning when this all started and they didn’t really want to test him. Just wondering if things have changed by now.

That's the same tweet that Kim Jong-Un got.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I gave up at 12 mins with Spain's "prevalence". He extrapolates the number of positive tests to the whole population but those tested are NOT representative. Only those exposed or suspected are tested. When other groups (like pregnant women) are tested, the positives are a MUCH smaller percentage - at 12 mins, he did NOT address the test selection criteria. Italy's overloaded hospitals are not typical flu.

Just watched it and he did make a statement that they were not going to look into it now/here
Why can you go shop in big business's but small business are closed, I find the same thing here in Australia going to the mall , there is something else going on, the isolation differences don't make sense.
Why can't you go for a drive in your car for example, does your car spread the virus to other cars in traffic?

Is not driving your car around one of the rules in Australia? Presumably because it reduces the temptation to get out of the car and interact with people, but I get your point.

It's always weird seeing how the rules are different and interpreted differently around the world. I had a friend in London who recently got reprimanded because he was walking, which an official in a park in Kensington didn't classify as exercise, he had to run. They still told him to go home even after explained he had a minor disability. He complained to the council and they reversed the decision, but there seems to be so much whim involved in the rules
