Information on Coronavirus / COVID-19 in Cambodia (Latest Updates December 2021)

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.

With 344 new cases it'll fill up fast. It looks like they just let everyone in, sick or not, or are they there because of the goodie bags handed out by the nurse in full protective clothing?

I highly doubt they have volunteered to go in there.
The queue of ambulances suggests a roundup.

Maybe I was right after all...?

So where do you think the "very sick" ones are being sent?
I doubt many ICU beds exist.
I don't imagine the big guy is running a club med for malingerers and hypochondriacs.
Do you think the people in there have wandered in seeking admission?
The authorities have told people who get sick with the virus to stay home if possible and self treat.

They might have moved these people out of hospitals to free up beds. It would make sense with that line of ambulances.
