Recovered Covid patients ‘may relapse’
Tue, 22 December 2020
Citing global observations, health ministry spokeswoman Or Vandine said between 10 and 15 per cent of recovered Covid-19 patients could relapse, though its chances of transmission are very low.
Vandine said that 2.6 per cent of Cambodia’s recovered Covid-19 patients, or nine in total, had experienced a recurrence of the infection.
She explained, however, that the communicability of the illness was much lowers in patients whose symptoms recurred than among those who had contracted it for the first time.
“Nevertheless, we are advised that Covid-19 patients who have recovered should continue to be isolated for 14 days with follow-up health checks. Patients must not be allowed to go out for personal meetings, shaking hands or making contact with others, and they must always carry out preventive measures,” Vandine stated.
