HE in Self Isolation After Contact with Covid + Hungarian Minister

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.

They must be tracing and testing like crazy by now, so surely in a day or two all the results should be back?
I heard it'll last until Dec. 18th at least.
Where did you hear that? End of next week is the official line, I'm guessing maybe an extra week as a precautionary measure, but no way till that late. If so, it means there are several positive results which are hidden from the public.
A friend of mine was called by his gym last tuesday or wednesday, before the official announcements, they would close until dec. 18th. My friend specifically asked them to reconfirm the 18th, and they did.
My gym is still open, so as usual with Cambodia it's all a bit "random". If they really wanted to close down places where people gather, they should temporarily shut down all coffee shops, seeing as they're totally non-essential and see thousands of interactions per day. Totally random selection of places to close, and no real plan as usual.

Here in Melbourne we are still in stage 4 lockdown. This is what the medicos have to say about it.

Allergists were in favour of scratching it, but Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

Gastroenterologists had a sort of gut feeling about it, but Neurologists thought the government had a lot of nerve.

Obstetricians felt certain everyone was labouring under a misconception, while Ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sighted.

Many Pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!” while Paediatricians said, “Oh, grow up!”

Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while Radiologists could see right through it.

Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing, and Pharmacists claimed it would be a bitter pill to swallow.

Plastic Surgeons opined that this proposal would “put a whole new face on the matter.”

Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.

Anaesthetists thought the whole idea was a gas, and those lofty Cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say, “No”.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the assholes.

PM Announces Nov. 3 Incident’s Quarantine Ending Schedule
AKP Phnom Penh, November 18, 2020 --

Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo HE has announced the schedule to end the quarantine period of Nov. 3 Incident, after he was confirmed negative for COVID-19 on his fourth and last test conducted on Nov. 18.

"While waiting for the test results of others (those coming in contact with the Nov. 3 Incident), I can announce that the Nov. 3 Incident’s quarantine period will come to a close as follows: on Nov. 19, 2020 for 1,569 people (5 Hungarians) in Phnom Penh including the 4 infected cases, of them one has already recovered and 3 others have been under treatement at the Khmer-Soviet Friendship Hospital; for 67 people in Kandal province; 40 in Pursat province; 23 in Prey Veng province; and 3 in Kampong Thom province,” wrote the Premier in a Facebook post this morning.

Samdech Techo HE continued that 3 people in Kampong Chhnang province will end their 14-day quarantine on Nov. 21; 18 people in Kep province, 40 in Preah Sihanouk province, and 1 person in Kampong Cham province on Nov. 23; and 20 people in Preah Vihear province, and 10 in Rattanakiri on Nov. 25.

At the same time, Samdech Techo HE reminded those being in quarantine period to continue their quarantine properly and strictly if not they will be required to restart their 14-day quarantine.

The preventive operation of the Nov. 3 Incident is very large and complicated because it involved many people in the capital, provinces, districts, Khans, cities, communes and villages, which is hard for tracking them. “But with the right leadership, hard work, solidarity and good cooperation, we can track all concerned people […],” he said.
