Corruption and apathy led to the outbreak of Covid-19 February 20 Community Event, a reminder
A large-scale outbreak detected in Phnom Penh in 20 February took place when two out of four Chinese nationals who breached quarantine at the Sokha Hotel few days prior were tested positive.
They were said to have spent time in a nightclub and several other residences including those in Koh Pich. This was the largest detected community outbreak to date, and selected city districts and businesses were ordered to close. Hospitals in Phnom Penh reached capacity by February 23. Later patients would be sent to Phnom Penh Quarantine Center in Prek Pnov District.
One of the patients treated in the said facility was pronounced deceased around 9 a.m. A 34-year-old Chinese man’s death was ruled as a heart attack due to Amphetamine withdrawal. Showing no mild symptoms, he was tested positive three days prior, a part of 20 February cluster with sum of 424 active cases so far that day.

On March 11, a Cambodian man, 50, died at 10:40 a.m. from chronic lung disease in Phnom Penh. He was confirmed to be exposed to his employer on 28 February. This occurrence marked the country’s first death of COVID-19.
According to U.S. CDC, all cases sequenced in the outbreak was infected by a British variant, Lineage B.1.1.7 and was believed to have started from an infected airline passenger who left quarantine without authorisation on the night of February 8.
An 8-to-5 night curfew order was implemented for two weeks started on April 1 across Phnom Penh. All non-essential travel and business activity was ceased. The death toll raised to 16.
In April 2021, a mass vaccination of Cambodia’s textile workers began, with the view to help jump-start the country’s post-pandemic economic recovery; the textile industry is worth an estimated $7 billion to Cambodia’s economy.
A record daily figure of 576 infections were reported on April 9. 544 of these were in Phnom Penh, mostly associated with cluster outbreaks at O’Russei market and a garment factory in Meanchey district. Some districts of Phnom Penh were placed under lockdown for 14 days, the first to be implemented in Cambodia since the pandemic began,
Yet the cause of these February 20 Community Event which is a week away from its 5th month “anniversary”, question swirl on the whereabouts of the two super spreaders, the security guards who were bribed to look the other way and after being charged, what then, have not made the news.
The grim “ RED LINE” warning by the Ministry of Health is a stark reminder of the after effects of the carelessness, the brazenness and the apathy of the MoH and the authorities.’
Thus, any RED LINE warnings does not seem to have any effect on the people in the capital city as can be seen by the movement of traffic and pedestrians and shoppers at malls and roadside eating centres. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_ ... odia/Khmer Times

I was told that the security guard is now in prison. Just him though, he must have been the mastermind behind it all!
