Senior health minister has called on the public to join hands to collectively stay away from the “box” or the control of the COVID-19 by means of new-normal way of life.
H.E. Dr. Or Vandine, Secretary of Sate at the Ministry of Health and Chairwoman of the Ad-hoc Commission for COVID-19 Vaccination, made the call when handing the Prime Minister’s award for the 10,000,000th inoculated person against the disease in Siem Reap provincial city this afternoon.
Cambodia will not survive forever under the control of COVID-19; that was why the Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen announced the reopening of the whole social process, particularly to recover the country economically, she said.
The reopening does not mean we are going back to the pre-COVID-19 period, but we are to live with the new-normal way of life by learning about the disease and how to manage it through thorough practice of the minimum safety standard.
She stressed that the reopening will not be effective without the responsibility of each and everyone to contribute to the endeavour.
She continued that COVID-19 vaccines remain the most important tool to enable the social and economic reopening, and encouraged sufficient vaccination among all eligible groups.
