Does anyone know where we can get one of the Covid vaccines in Cambodia?

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!

They take your photo when they make up your vaccination card.

@patcan mentioned the issue of the ink smudging.

I can confirm that when it is fresh it will smudge and if it gets wets it may continue to do so. I would hate to have to obtain a replacement card, I don't suppose they are geared up for that request yet.

I have had my card laminated at the little printing shop on street 51/200 Daun Penh, for 1000 riel.

This card might become extremely valuable and a must carry item in the near future, so it's well worth considering getting it protected while it's is good condition.

Thank you, "Rocker" Lawyer, via Doc for lamination tip. It goes in the passport bag. Is there a photo attached as another form of ID?

a quick question:
does everyone ( or no one) agree that once most of the population is vaccinated that the shots will be more freely/easily available for those that are not rushing to get the shot?

GF's sister an her husband had to drive from Kep to PP to get their 1st shot last week, so it seems there are not many vaccination spots outside the capital
