rime Minister Hun Sen’s rigorously ambitious plan of vaccinating a further two million children between the ages of 12  and 17 will require another four million doses of vaccines to be ordered and delivered by the last quarter of this year.

 

Cambodia is set to receive up to four million doses of vaccines from China in August to complete its vaccination campaign on a targeted 10 million people by this year. It had also ordered one million additional doses for the possibility of vaccinating children aged above 12 and also as a booster 3rd shot.

 

In a special voice message Hun Sen said there are around 2 million children between 12 and 17 years old in Cambodia, so the country needs 4 million more doses of COVID-19 vaccines. The vaccination of younger citizens can be done after the end or at the same time as that of the 18 years and over, currently in progress, he stressed. Phnom Penh capital and Kandal province remain the priority, followed by Preah Sihanouk province, he said.
