PHNOM PENH, May 16 (Phnom Penh Post/ANN): People who have recovered from Covid-19 do not need to get vaccinated against the disease because they have already developed antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, but they can get the jab six month after recovery if they desire, according to Cambodian Ministry of Health spokeswoman Or Vandine.

“For those who have received their first dose of Covid-19 vaccine and then contracted the virus, or those who have not gotten the jab and contracted the disease but later recovered, they don’t need to get vaccinated because they have already developed immunity.
