SINGAPORE — From Tuesday (Jan 25), children in Singapore aged five to 11 will be able to go to any paediatric vaccination centre with their parents or guardians to get a first dose of Covid-19 vaccine without the need for appointment.

This is applicable only for those who intend to get vaccinated from Mondays to Thursdays, the Ministry of Education and the Early Childhood Development Agency said in a news release on Monday.

The vaccination centres are not able to accommodate the general walk-in arrangement on Fridays to Sundays due to high demand in appointment bookings on these days, MOE and ECDA said. Parents or guardians should take along the child’s student identification — or other forms of identification — on the day of vaccination for verification purposes.UPDATES ON VACCINATION PROGRESS

“We have also received more than 23,000 registrations from all children aged five to 11 on the MOH National Appointment System at child.vaccine.gov.sg.
