The U.S. Embassy in Cambodia emphasized that the four U.S. Embassy staff and their family members who were diagnosed with Covid-19 had tested negative before they arrived in Cambodia.
It said that apart from the aforementioned four US embassy personnel and their family members the embassy had not yet found any new cases.
The U.S. Embassy stated through its official Facebook page yesterday that the four confirmed patients are under strict quarantine within the embassy. They did not develop symptoms during the quarantine period. They have also been tested twice and tested negative.
"The U.S. Embassy takes seriously the prevention and containment of Covid-19. We abide by all Cambodian government requirements for the arrival, testing, and quarantine of all diplomatic personnel and their family members", the embassy wrote on Facebook.
It emphasized that all embassy staff must be test negative before departing the country, be quarantined and retested upon arrival, and finally be tested again before the end of the quarantine.
"The Embassy is committed to full transparency as a matter of public health and has notified the Cambodian Ministry of Health whenever our personnel test positive and when such personnel achieve negative status. We cooperate closely with the Ministry and other authorities to prevent further infections", the Facebook statement said.
It promised that the U.S. Embassy will work closely with the Ministry of Health and relevant authorities to prevent recurrence of infections.
It added that since the outbreak of the epidemic, the US government has provided $11 million US dollars in aid to Cambodia to help Cambodia fight the epidemic.
