Phnom Penh: China is to give Cambodia 1 million doses of the Covid-19 vaccine developed by state-owned Sinopharm, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has announced. Hun Sen revealed the donation on Facebook on Friday evening. The prime minister acknowledged that by accepting the vaccine from China, he was contradicting a previous pledge to only use treatments approved by the World Health Organisation (WHO). But Hun Sen said Cambodia could not afford to wait as cases from an outbreak in Thailand continued to spill across the border through returning migrant workers. (dpa)
