The United States has gifted Cambodia US$11 million to bolster its Covid-19 vaccination program, which is accelerating across the country with 2 million people already inoculated.
Cambodian Foreign Minister Prak Sokhonn thanked US ambassador Patrick Murphy, saying close cooperation between the country’s Health Ministry and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US was key to curbing the pandemic.
