SINGAPORE — Data in Singapore on the bivalent Covid-19 vaccines does not show an increased risk of ischaemic stroke linked to either of the updated Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech shots, said the Ministry of Health (MOH) on Saturday (Jan 14).
The Health Ministry's statement comes after United States federal health authorities launched an investigation into a preliminary safety concern about a potential increased risk of stroke in seniors who received the bivalent vaccine.
An ischaemic stroke, also known as brain ischaemia, is caused by blockages in arteries that carry blood to the brain. However, the US CDC said in a statement on Friday that it is"very unlikely" that Pfizer's bivalent Covid-19 shot carries an increased risk of stroke for people aged 65 and older."A large study of updated vaccines using the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services database revealed no increased risk of ischaemic stroke," said the US CDC.
"It is important to remain up-to-date with Covid-19 vaccination to reduce one’s risk of severe Covid-19, and to protect against current and future variants," said MOH.
