More tourists from China are visiting Singapore clinics to get vaccinated against Covid-19 with mRNA vaccines, as leisure travel between the two countries resumes after nearly three years. Healthcare chain Raffles Medical, which operates 34 clinics in Singapore, said last...
The programme began in April 2022 to cater to those who do not qualify for the National Vaccination Programme.
It added that there is sufficient stock available for Singaporeans and residents under the National Vaccination Programme. The healthcare chain also added that Public Health Preparedness Clinics , which provide vaccines under the Private Vaccination Programme, are not participating in the national programme nor providing any other Covid-19 vaccines.
Parkway Shenton’s medical director Dr Edwin Chng attributed the interest in the vaccine from Chinese travellers to the lack of access to non-mRNA vaccines in their home country.mRNA vaccines, like the ones manufactured by Pfizer and Moderna most Singaporeans have received, are not readily available in mainland China, which has mostly administered its home-grown Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccines.
Studies here and abroad have found that mRNA vaccines stimulate a stronger immune response to the Covid-19 virus than inactivated vaccines, though inactivated vaccines have been shown to prevent severe disease.
