Singapore govt will extend concessions to people vaccinated with Sinovac if evidence justifies it, says minister | Malay Mail

SINGAPORE, July 26 — Concessions on safe management measures will be given to people who have received the Sinovac vaccine, or any other vaccines, if the evidence justifies it, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung in Parliament today.

“The authorities and the expert committee on Covid-19 vaccinations are still studying the data,” he said. Sinovac, a Beijing-based biopharmaceutical firm, recently submitted the required safety data for their application for the Pandemic Special Access Route approval, Mr Ong said. So far, about 72,000 people have received at least one dose of the non-mRNA vaccine, out of which 17,000 have received two doses, Ong said.

But here our DG says all vaccines are equally effective, even Sinovac. Why?
