Apparently, this is the final call from the authority for those people who had missed the vaccine call out previously.

Wonder when Cambodia will acknowledge sinovac is ineffective and start a new roll out with a ‘better’ vaccine?
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

We'd get a much clearer view of its efficacy if only they would announce PP case numbers over the next few weeks. If it was working, they should drop dramatically. But for now the relevant data is apparently a dark secret. Gee I wonder why. (I really wish I was wrong about this).

I would expect/hope there'd still be at least one location offering jabs, like Calmette possibly. Better strategy not to announce that just yet, to try and get as many people through the mass vaccination centres now, though.

China Sinovac Shot Seen Highly Effective in Real World Study
Bloomberg News
May 12, 2021, 4:00 AM GMT+7 Updated on May 12, 2021, 2:42 PM GMT+7

Sinovac Biotech Ltd.’s vaccine is wiping out Covid-19 among health workers in Indonesia, an encouraging sign for the dozens of developing countries reliant on the controversial Chinese shot, which performed far worse than western vaccines in clinical trials.

Indonesia tracked 128,290 health workers in capital city Jakarta from January to March and found that the vaccine protected 98% of them from death and 96% from hospitalization as soon as seven days after the second dose, Pandji Dhewantara, a Health Ministry official who oversaw the study, said in a Wednesday press conference.

Dhewantara also said that 94% of the workers had been protected against symptomatic infection -- an extraordinary result that goes beyond what was measured in the shot’s numerous clinical trials. Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin earlier revealed a smaller version of the study involving 25,374 people in a Tuesday interview with Bloomberg that had the same effectiveness data for hospitalization and infection. Protection against death was 100% in the smaller group.

“We see a very, very drastic drop,” in hospitalizations and deaths among medical workers, Sadikin said. It’s not known what strain of the coronavirus Sinovac’s shot worked against in Indonesia, but the country has not flagged any major outbreaks driven by variants of concern. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... orld-study
