AS at March 3, more than 80,000 frontliners have been vaccinated, while 1.77 million people have registered their interest to be enrolled in the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme.
After receiving the first of two jabs on Thursday, it was straight to work as usual for me. Though I have a history of mild allergies to some analgesics, I haven’t encountered any adverse reactions yet. Nevertheless, I adhere strictly to the SOP while attending to patients or when I’m out in public because the vaccine does not confer full immunity immediately (“One Pfizer-BioNTech jab gives ‘90% immunity’”, The Guardian, Feb 3).
