SINGAPORE, June 1 — Pregnant women will be able to register and book a vaccination appointment from Friday onwards if they are part of the population group eligible for vaccination, the government’s Covid-19 task force said yesterday.

MoH said that these revisions were made after more people have been vaccinated both globally and locally. “There is currently no evidence to suggest that the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna Covid-19 vaccines may cause harm to pregnant women or their babies,” MoH said. There is now “no evidence of any safety signals or increased rates of adverse events from messenger ribonucleic acid technology-based Covid-19 vaccines for this group”, MoH said.
