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.

It is because they are sitting at home desperate not to go anywhere near the hospital in case they get set to the plague pits that have been built for them.

Eventually they have to go to a hospital and usually present either very nearly dead or very actually dead.

This has been a consistent factor of many deaths, they are dead within 24-48 after arrival at hospital. Many have been tested and confirmed Covid-19 post mortem.

Does this theory also translate to the deaths in England and other counties?

Actually, in the UK, people were calling ambulances but not being taken in because they were not sick enough. There are many anecdotall stories of people being left too late.

I don't know, but there's no NHS here, whenever you go to a hospital here you either lose an arm or a leg. Maybe that's why?

No idea if there is any system at all. I know perhaps 50 people who’ve had their shots, some already had their second one, all below the age of 30 and none of them high-risk or frontline.

I agree. From what I've seen on Facebook in recent weeks, if you are wealthy or connected, you get your jab and facebrag about it for likes and comments. It's not the most vulnerable or essential workers getting vaxxed first. It's those with friends in high places.

and it looks to me like they've hijacked the vaccine rollout
so they can get their second shots in
now they realize it's essential
and case numbers are climbing
