Cambodia first country to receive 500,000 Covid-19 vaccines
The Ministry of Health said today that the World Health Organization had confirmed that it will provide 500,000 doses of vaccine against Covid-19 to Cambodia.
The Ministry of Health said that after the official launch of the new Covid-19 vaccine, according to the new vaccine guarantee mechanism (Covax) led by the World Health Organization, Cambodia will be the first to obtain 500,000 doses of vaccine, covering approximately 3% of the country's total population.
The Ministry of Health said that they had not yet decided how they will distribute the vaccines and whether they will prioritize senior government officials and front-line medical staff.
After the vaccine hits the market, there will not be enough vaccines for everybody. The vaccine guarantee mechanism led by the World Health Organization does not distribute vaccines only to Cambodia but to the whole world.
On October 13, the World Bank pledged to provide $12 billion dollars to developing countries for the purchase of Covid-19 vaccines, testing and treatment.
Chinese State Councilor and Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi said during his recent visit to Cambodia that China will give Cambodia a priority in providing vaccines.
The annual production capacity of China's new Covid-19 vaccine will reach 610 million doses by the end of this year.
Tian Baoguo, deputy director of the Department of Science and Technology for Social Development of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, said during a press conference on October 20 that China's vaccine research and development work is currently in a leading position. Four new Covid-19 vaccines have entered the third phase of clinical trials. Around 60,000 people have been vaccinated in China.
China has joined the new Covid-19 vaccine guarantee mechanism (Covax) led by the World Health Organization. The staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that they will strengthen cooperation with other countries through this mechanism and provide vaccines to developing countries together with other member countries.

Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
A Chinese vaccine? China is the country that distributes Fentanyl around the world to ruin people’s lives. China is the country where at least three viruses have now come from in recent years.
China lied about the virus I the first couple months, and arrested doctors and disappeared a few doctors who tried to warn the west. China stopped internal travel to stop the virus, but at the same time allowed travel from Wuhan to the west.
Seriously.... you will trust a a Covid vaccine made in China? ?
No Chinese vaccine for me,...... thanks anyways. I’ll wait for a western made Covid vaccine.

Both Russia n China claim to have a vaccine but judging by the way the virus is surging in Russia I don't think the Russian one is up to much.
I would like to see more work on a cure such as the cocktail of anti-body medicines that seemingly worked so well on Trump.

Considering the possibilities, if nothing else, it's a good mental exercise.
As far as a vaccine is concerned, weighed against the aforementioned, let me get back to you.
Please make sure all these go to the most vulnerable people in the country : government, ministries, senate, army...
Then maybe Cambodia can finally get the free fresh start it deserves
