Some Singapore private healthcare firms considering importing more vaccines as demand for non-mRNA vaccines soars

At least four healthcare institutions including StarMed Specialist Centre, have started administering the shots.Dr Tan said his centre is currently administering around 80 doses a day and has vaccinated more than 200 patients since it received its first shipment of Sinovac shots last Friday. The second shipment of 200 doses arrived on Monday.

READ: Some Singapore private healthcare providers consider offering Sinovac's COVID-19 vaccine after WHO approval “The clinic has a large seating area which can accommodate high throughput, with adequate safe-distancing measures in place, as such, the clinic is able to comfortably accept walk-in patients and if we have spare capacity, they can receive their vaccinations on the spot,” said Thomson Medical spokesperson.REPORTING SIDE EFFECTS FROM SINOVAC VACCINES

What lies? What are the options? And when an option is available what is the response? Put on a thinking cap, if you have one.

Moreover, the reported efficacies of 90% were based solely on limited studies (small cohorts of non-diversified populations) of short timeframe. In contrast, vaccines developed with decades old methodology are considered safer and more reliable.

This shows that many Singaporeans are well-informed. While mRNA-based vaccine is undeniably a recent scientific breakthrough, pharmacological studies e.g. toxicity & pharmacokinetics have not been well-documented in human bodies

Sinovac vaccines aren’t as effective as the others. If the delta variant spread becomes uncontrollable there must be a plan to put these Sinovac folks away so that they do not end up infecting the vulnerables. The country’s economy has to open up fully and soon.

With only 5 million people on a small piece of land it's bewildering that vaccination is not yet complete.

Concern about mRNA? Nah! Why not try also AstraZeneca
