Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, pushing the Pfizer vaccine for those who had taken Sinovac is not right since there is absolutely no study whatsoever about mixing Sinovac with Pfizer. There is no science or data on this. So, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
I would prefer Sinovac since the first two jabs were Sinovac. In MySejahtera, when one is not taking up the offer, there isn't any suggested reason for choice of vaccine. The closest is"I have other things to do".The US dragged their feet on accepting China’s vaccine. The UK first made it inconvenient for recipients of China's vaccine to visit the country by having them go through a longer quarantine.
A lot of people are not comfortable with mixing their vaccines even though heterologous vaccine is considered safe. That discomfort is not without sound common sense. Yes, the science may not warrant that concern but that has not stopped people from using common sense to decide for themselves.The majority of the commentators here are against mixing Pfizer as booster with Sinovac, which is also the strong recommendation of a Sinovac scientist mentioned in a recent Phamaniaga news update.
Now I can have my booster jab of Sinovac at RM150 from a private clinic in Petaling Jaya after six months from my last jab. Paying RM150 in exchange for peace of mind is worth it!China has just announced that its citizens who received Sinovac for more than six months only are advised to take the booster jab. Why is the interval only three months for Malaysians?Malaysia Bharu:
I personally became very weak after the second dose of Sinovac and took two months of special care to recover my health. Wouldn't it be a risk to mix and match Pfizer as booster and so soon after the second dose administered at end of June?
It’s a cartel
