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.

a convention centre in Koh Pich is being converted to another quarantine centre.
It is a field hospital with 5000 beds. Not a quarantine center.
Started provisioning yesterday.
Here it is:

Gee, those beds look very close together..

I hope their Air conditioning is up to the job. 500 people create a lot of heat. That place is going to be a plague pit, you may have a low viral load going in but you are going to be getting lungs full of it in there.

No wonder they are threatening people with 5 years in prison for refusing medical treatment.

Covid-19 vaccination now obligatory

Has this been reported here yet? I don't like the sound of that.

Prime Minister HE on April 11 issued a sub-decree making Covid-19 vaccination compulsory for individuals unless they have a medical certificate proving they have pre-existing health conditions that prevent them from doing so.

«This applies to all members of the armed forces and civil servants at state institutions; citizens who hold public office through elections; public officials at legislative bodies; judges, prosecutors and other officials in the judiciary," states the sub-decree.

Covid-19 vaccination is also mandatory for individuals based on their professions and the infection risks associated with them as determined by the Ministry of Health.

«Exemptions are granted to those who cannot get vaccinated for medical reasons as permitted by the health authorities," it said.

The sub-decree also stipulates penalties for failure to receive Covid-19 jabs.

«Each institution shall first issue a warning to those who avoid vaccination … and subject them to administrative measures or legal action should they continue to avoid getting vaccinated," it said.

it basically says:

- public civil servants & armed forces are under executive institutions
- citizens get elected mandate & public civil servants are under legislative institutions
- judges, prosecutors & public civil servants under court institutions.

- citizens vest with public office through election.

If anyone of the above-mentioned escapes vaccine reception , is warned and instructed to get vaccine. If anyone continues to evade vaccine, will get penalized by their institutions.
