ISRAEL - Covid Cases Rise Despite Vaccination Program
25 June 2021
Israel has reintroduced a requirement to wear masks indoors amid a rise in coronavirus cases, just 10 days after it lifted the measure.
Concern has grown after the country recorded more than 100 new daily cases in successive days after registering zero earlier this month.
Most of the cases have been linked to the Delta variant. first identified in India.
Israel has been one of the most successful countries in the world in tackling the pandemic.
It implemented the fastest vaccination programme, under which well over half the population of 9.3 million has been partially or fully immunised.

Looks like case numbers for Cambodia are vastly under-reported when you go on the deaths figure.

Curing people with mild to moderate symptoms is easy, you can do it at home. Severe symptoms are more complicated and require high levels of knowledge, skills, equipment and experience. These are in very short supply here.
I think Cambodia's limited ICU capacity and skills of the medical team are now translating into deaths that would not of occurred in many countries. When all the easy cases have been dealt with they go home. but the hospitals are left with all the hard ones, the patients that need weeks or months of constant treatment.
I have no evidence at all for this statement, but I suspect the ICU's are now full, with both long term people who can't recover and new ones that don't cure themselves with a bit of oxygen and bed rest. There may well be a bit of plug-pulling going on to free up space.
The mortality rate for people needing ICU treatment but can't get it, is 100%.
Cambodia’s death toll from Covid-19 has increased exponentially from 1 in March 11, 2021 to 540 in Saturday, June 27, 2021.
Between 21 June and 27 June 99 deaths have been recorded across the country

A new peer-reviewed clinical study has been published in the American Journal of Therapeutics.
It confirms the effectiveness of Ivermectin in preventing and treating Covid.

Re: Following the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak - News and Discussion
I very nearly quoted the Singapore comparison in my post. Even with their vastly superior health system, deaths in KH are way out of proportion to official case numbers. And yes, we have long suspected that was the case, it's just more obvious in the table.Doc67 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 28, 2021 8:32 amOr go to the hospitals here - 46,810 and 523 deaths and in Singapore - 62,530 and 36 deaths.timmydownawell wrote: ↑Mon Jun 28, 2021 6:52 am Looks like case numbers for Cambodia are vastly under-reported when you go on the deaths figure.

Re: Following the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak - News and Discussion
I think we have been on the same page for a long while. The limitation of daily tests supress the real numbers. The positive rates are hovering about 10% (7000 tests - 700+/- positives) so extrapolate that number in the areas of high infection rates and you get some big numbers. The fact the have resolutely refused to reveal PP's numbers tells us they have something to hide.timmydownawell wrote: ↑Mon Jun 28, 2021 9:57 amI very nearly quoted the Singapore comparison in my post.

Re: Following the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak - News and Discussion
Recommended home therapy for Covid patients has been published. Ivermectin does not feature.
The Ministry of Health has issued guidelines and follow-up procedures for home-based treatment for Covid-19 patients with mild or asymptomatic cases to prevent virus transmission to family members and others.
Patients whose temperature is lower than 37.5 degrees Celsius and without running noses, sore throat or cough are not required to take medication.
Adult patients or children over 30kg who has a temperature over 37.5C with muscle pain and sore throat are advised to take 500 milligrammes of Paracetamol three times a day. Children weighing 20-29kg shall take 300 milligrammes of Paracetamol three times a day.
Adult patients and children aged 6 and over who develop other symptoms such as stuffy and running nose and cough are advised to take eight milligrammes of Bromhexine three times a day, or alternatively 10 milligrammes of Cetirizine one time a day.
