Information on Coronavirus / COVID-19 in Cambodia (Latest Updates December 2021)

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

"Up to now, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi is very healthy and travel to almost everywhere. Now he is visiting our Southeast Asian region, after the visit to Africa. Therefore, the experience of Foreign Minister Wang Yi, one of China's key leaders, gives us confidence that there is no risk to human life for China-made vaccine,” he said.






So once vaccinated your safe to travel everywhere

Safe maybe. But quarantine is a nice littler earner so don't expect that to change anytime soon.

Individually 50-95% safe, depending on the vaccine, and whether or not the variants defeat the vaccine. Safe unless you fall into the 5-50% that aren’t protected.

But my prediction is once mass vaccination occurs worldwide, quarantine measures will fall, and things will return to normal. Of course proof of vaccination, required.

As I said before, the intergovernmental agreements as to what constitutes proof will take longer to develop than the vaccines themselves. And what country will be brave enough to say that the Chinese vaccine, with an alleged efficacy of only 50-60% are not good enough! Australia perhaps?

There is going to be a lot of very sick people after this is all over. Lifetime sick, and those lifetimes greatly reduced. Bad lungs cause lots of pressure on the heart to work harder, and that is never good.
