Whatzup - Breaking Cambodia Covid News on Outbreaks and Lockdowns

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.

Shiny new graphics, cases plummeting, deaths down, active cases down.

Sputnik V vaccine authorised for emergency use in Cambodia
The Kingdom of Cambodia has issued an Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA) for Russia-made Sputnik V vaccine against COVID-19.

The EUA certificate for Sputnik V, manufactured by R-Pharm Russia, was signed yesterday by Prof. Mam Bunheng, Minister of Health of Cambodia.

On the same day, the Ministry of Health also granted EUAs to four other Russian COVID-19 vaccines, including CoviVac of Chumakov Centre, Sputnik-Light of Gamaleya Institute,

EpiVacCorona of Scientific Research Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB SRC Vector), and EpiVacCorona of State Research Centre of Virology and Biotechnology.

Cambodia issued EUA for China-manufactured Sinopharm and Sinovac vaccines, and the AstraZeneca developed by the University of Oxford in February this year.
As of Oct. 29, 85.64 percent of Cambodia’s total population of 16 million have been vaccinated against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Insanity. We have the data already. We already know kids don't die from covid. The whole population is vaccinated already and they keep moving the goalpost of opening up. And this is Cambodia, a really poor country that definitely cannot afford these policies. More kids will surely die from poverty due to this than would be saved from any minor benefit of any vaccine. If any.
