Worth getting a 4th vaccine?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

I have been told by 2 professional medical sources that covid19 is rampaging throughout the city at this time, so please take care.

It seems like a good idea to me to take the free upgrade in protection seeing as how I haven't had any issues with the previous three injections.
Can anyone confirm that this is still the case? I've not had time to go lately but I have a free day tomorrow and am planning on going to get my top up, if it's still available?
Can confirm I got my Pfizer there this morning. Was in and out in about 30 minutes. Left hand side of Olympia Media Hub, go down the concrete "road" about 100m. You can park a moto right in front of the place where they're giving the shots.
I can only find references to Olympia Medical Hub. Not media hub. I assume it’s an auto correct error?

Found it. For anyone else who’s as dumb as me (although to be fair Olympia Media Hub isn’t on Google maps) - go to Olympia Medical Hub but just before it there’s a dirt road on the left (on the same side of the road of the Medical Hub). There are tents on the corner of the road but I think these are for PCR tests. Keep walking up the road some way and you can’t miss it on the right. Lots of red plastic chairs inside and out.

We arrived at 11.30 and were told it was closed for lunch until 1pm.

Cambodians have very long lunch breaks.

You can message Intercare on Telegram (in English) if you want to double check.

Thanks but I've already had it - everything said in this thread is still correct (as of yesterday)

I just got covid from a tripple vaxed gf. I didn't get the vax. My symptoms were less than hers. It was basically fever off and on for 30 hours. I don't see how the vaccines are useful. No cough, no sniffing, and I just had coffee, so I am feeling better now. I'm actually thinking part of the problem was caffeine withdrawal symptoms.

Pfizer 4th booster is still available at Intercare Medical Center next to Olympia Medical Hub. I was in and out in about 30 mins yesterday. Handy moto parking opposite. I've also heard from a FB group that Preah Ang Duong Hospital is also but can't personally confirm.

Any documents required to proof residence (in Phnom Penh)?
