(Phnom Penh): Phnom Penh Municipal Spokesman, Met Meas Pheakdey, has informed the public via media that three Chinese men living in a Borey in Sen Sok do not have the coronavirus disease.

Phnom Penh Municipal Governor Khuong Sreng ordered Sen Mony Municipality and health officials, as well as local authorities, to inspect the homes of three Chinese nationals.

After questioning, the experts concluded that there was no connection to Covid-19, and the team recommended the above three Chinese to be hygienic when meeting their friends. However, these three Chinese men, who come from the disease area in China, have symptoms such as a cough, runny nose, 38 °fever, and shortness of breath.
Mr. Meas Pheakdey said that in this case, the health department will continue to monitor the three nationals above. Moreover, in relation to the health of the people in Phnom Penh, especially in Covid-19, the governor was very careful and always ready to take action.

City Hall spokesman urges and urges citizens not to believe in unsubstantiated information that could lead to misunderstandings like this and other cases, and please do not continue Distribute unsubstantiated information, which in turn has shocked people.

Have most of the symptoms but no testing as they have questioned them instead.

I’d be curious to know what the Thai measurements/units column indicates for concentration, as there seems little correlation with numbers in relation to % concentration.
5% = 5, 10 or 1 Thai wotsits
But
2.5% = up to 30

The first column is the % of dettol mixture. The second column is how long in minutes (to do whatever). The one which says '30' is seconds not minutes.
Hope that helps some. :hattip:

Scarry, they either have absolutely no test kits or they simply don´t care about their people.
