An old man emotionally expressed good-bye and wish gesture to his 92-year-old father who has reportedly tested positive for COVID-19.

Have a bit of empathy and better judgement . He has covid...that does not make him a moron.. He has a mask on , probably lowered it for the photo. He probably thinks he is leaving home to die, be compassionate.

In a population of 16 million people 90 have died. The cases numbers are really referring to positive tests. Are there that many seriously ill people here? I dont think so. Does anyone know anyone that is seriously ill from this?
Most of the deaths are really from othr health concerns such as heart disease and diabetes. I mean really 90 deaths over a 12 month period out of 16 million??? Im no mathemetician but thats fck all!

I have to say, I find this line of thinking very much misguided. It surprises me that we’re now more than 12 months into a global pandemic that has killed in excess of 3 million people worldwide (despite lockdowns and vaccine efforts), and this attitude still persists. I understand that in a world of nearly 8 billion people this seems trivial, but there are so many elements you are not capturing.

One of the biggest concerns from the start of this pandemic is that hospitals and intensive care units become overstretched, to the point that routine procedures and care can no longer take place and otherwise healthy people can pass away from preventable causes. Every bed and staff occupied by somebody with covid-19, can no longer be dedicated to somebody else, whether they have covid-19 or not. Even better healthcare systems have been taken to their limits during this pandemic, with huge backlogs which will take months/years to resolve, even if covid-19 is eradicated overnight.

Then there are the economic struggles, the mental health struggles (fear of virus, loss of loved ones without saying proper goodbyes, living in lockdown), that has impacted millions if not billions worldwide. It is in EVERYBODY’s interest that we take covid-19 seriously and do our best to stop it overwhelming healthcare systems and causing unnecessary deaths.

The fact the deaths from COVID-19 are above 0 in Cambodia and exponentially rising should be of high concern to anybody in the country, as that means the situation is worsening, not getting better. There was a time when Brazil had ‘just’ 90 deaths, India ‘just’ 90 deaths too.

Sorry to rant, but I’ve become bored of this ‘why are we scared of covid-19’ rhetoric. It’s a been a catastrophe in many countries and it’s something we should all be concerned about, as to not be concerned and be trivial will only make the situation worse for all of us worldwide.

But this shows the 'lockdown' of Phnom Penh is far from airtight.
