😱😱

Isn't this misleading & extremely unbalanced journalism, especially since the average Singaporean is too lazy to read beyond the headline? Wouldn't the headline '11,737 suspected adverse events reported after Pfizer & Moderna COVID-19 vaccinations in Spore' be bigger news?

Super bias!!!!! Common CNA, you can do better than this! Singapore's national pledge '....... To BUILD a DEMOCRATIC society.....' ***** Understand!

Another Bias headlines by CNA, even though they do give the adverse events on pfzer and Moderna further down the article, which is worst than sinovac percentage wise.

Not as safe then

Die ? No ? Then all vaccines its safe , all up to individual

Facts: Sinovac: 90 SUSPECTED adverse events, 90/168,400 doses = 0.053% Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna: SUSPECTED adverse events are at 0.13%, which is more than twice that of Sinovac’s.

Events or effects?

AZ, Moderna and Pfizer all had serious side-effects as reported by European authorities and why you didn't highlighted them here?
