Questions on vaccine validity


SINCE the announcement on the expiry date of one’s “fully vaccinated” status, Health Minister Ong Ye Kung tackled some common questions and detailed specific scenarios with examples.

Why do we need a nine-month expiry date after the two doses of mRNA vaccines or three doses of Sinovac or Sinopharm vaccine?Because protection will wane over time. This can be restored with a booster dose, which is recommended five months after getting the mRNA vaccines and three months after dose three of the Sinovac or Sinopharm vaccine.
