Thanks for sharing.  I am afraid for those who are already fully vaccinated with mRNA, MOH will not allow "booster" with any approved non-RNA.

I know those who had Sinovac received MOH  notification  "strongly" urging them to that m-RNA for 3rd jab.

From what I had gathered, those on Sinovac already made up their mind long ago...and won't even dare go near m-RNA...😝

next year when i need to take booster for pizer.

my best guess is i will go book 3 dose of sinoharm to have the fully vacc cert.

For Sinovac, 1st and 2nd Jab has 4 weeks interval. 

3rd jab will be 4 months after that.

It is likely a booster 6 months after that.

========================================

For mRNA, 1st and 2nd jab has 2 weeks interval.

Booster will be 6 months after that.

========================================

Same same??

Booster in 6 months' time is what "expert" say one... Experts with research grant from pharma companies. Up to us to believe or not [laugh] 

Is like those research papers on tongkat ali boosting testosterone lah, you see those researchers either receive grant from tongkat ali pill manufacturer or in their employ.

Back to covid, the best is to check antibody level - which may differ from individual to individual.

Or based on individual risk profile, decide for ownself whether the interval should be 1 year (more reasonable, IMHO, like a flu vaccine), or perhaps even longer or not at all - the covid virus might become more benign by then.

What I am saying is that all these figures are spouted by someone and the veracity is never 100%.

I am not averse to mRNA vaccine and in fact, chose it over those traditional vacc; however, i believe the risk is there and why take further risk if not necessary? "Chose" is a wrong word on second thought, because i got the vacc quite early on when the adverse side effects were not yet widespread news... more like, take the jab blindly [laugh] and turned out ok.

As of now, not a concern for MRNA based ones. I don't think the govt will push that hard on boosters for those who did MRNA based vaccines.
There are lot of people going around without boosters.

Serological evidence has shown that taking inactivated (sinovac or sinopharm) vaccine boosters post MRNA based vaccine does nothing antibody wise.

Just like you, I took it once it is available for my age group.

I had done cpass test. I can hold on till the 11th month before taking booster.

hmmm like what inlinesix said, the younger you are, the stronger your antibody level will be even with no boosters

If u are >50 and not good health, then maybe the boosters more important. Or if u are in close contact with covid virtually daily like me, then yeah.
If u work in areas whereby interaction with large numbers of people or take care of kids etc, then yeah sensible to be boosted.


Personally I don't really care if my wife/siblings/BIL/SIL etc take the booster. But all the old folks 100% boosted up.
Of course this doesnt apply to sinovac as primary vaccine. I would definitely boost in that scenario.

novavax so tok kong meh? how come huh?

Expand  

no expert. but alot of hype on it.

its different from sinovac/sinoharm or pizer ( mrna ) type of vaccine.

the best case scenario is novavax  type of vaccine can beat cov19 once and for all.

3 Sinovac doses fail to protect against Omicron in study

Two doses and a booster of the Covid-19 vaccine made by China's Sinovac Biotech, one of the most widely used in the world, did not produce sufficient levels of neutralising antibodies to protect against the Omicron variant, a laboratory study has found.
