VACCINATION

Singapore's Health Sciences Authority (HSA) has approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for pandemic use, announced Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong today (December 14).

The first shipment of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine should arrive end-December.

A committee of doctors and experts, set up by MOH, has proposed that the entire adult population in Singapore should be vaccinated, but to also make vaccinations voluntary.

Priority for vaccines will be given to those who are at greatest risk, such as healthcare workers and frontline personnel, as well as the elderly and vulnerable.

Vaccines will then be offered to the rest of the population progressively, with the goal of covering everyone who wants vaccination by the end of 2021.

PM Lee also announced that Singapore is also bringing in other vaccines, and if all goes according to plan, there should be enough vaccines for everyone in Singapore by the third quarter of 2021.

Arrangements also made with Moderna, Sinovac

The prime minister added that the Singapore government had been working quietly behind the scenes to secure access to vaccines early in the pandemic and made advance arrangements with "promising candidates" such as American biotech company Moderna and Chinese bio-pharmaceutical company Sinovac, in addition to Pfizer.

Stressing the importance of getting vaccinated, PM Lee said that he and his older colleagues will be getting the vaccine:

"My colleagues and I, including the older ones, will be getting ourselves vaccinated early. This is to show you, especially seniors like me, that we believe the vaccines are safe."

Singapore approves Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, first shipment expected by end-December: PM Lee

Quote

“The committee has proposed that our entire adult population should be vaccinated, but to make vaccinations voluntary,” said Mr Lee.

Priority will be given to those at greatest risk, such as frontline and healthcare workers, and the elderly and vulnerable.

“Thereafter, the committee proposes to progressively vaccinate the rest of the population, and to cover everyone who wants a vaccination by the end of next year,” he said.

The Government has accepted the committee’s recommendations, said Mr Lee, adding he has “personal confidence” in the experts.
