The Singaporean Health Ministry announced last month that it would continue to make updated COVID – 19 vaccine stocks obtainable” if necessary and appropriate for the native situation” in response to CNA’s inquiries about the increase of the Eris variant in the US.
On 18 % of COVID – 19 group situations in Singapore andnbsp, according to the government, were infected with Eris earlier in August.
On Friday, the HSA emphasized that the updated vaccine may guarantee ongoing safety as the SARS-CoV-2 disease develops.
The organization continued,” Regular updating of approved COVID – 19 vaccines may be required as … new variants emerge to ensure the continued success of the vaccinations.”
For seasonal flu vaccines that are updated every six months, this strategy is not fresh and has been established.
The rector, Mr. Ong, even urged Singaporeans to get immunized once a year in his social media post, especially the elderly.
He claimed that Singapore’s immunization rate was declining,” which means that over time, our defense against COVID-19 did wane.”
According to Mr. Ong,” through vaccinations and a healthy healing from infections, the virus has not gotten any milder; rather, we have become stronger.”
