NOTICE OF QUESTION FOR ORAL ANSWER

FOR THE SITTING OF PARLIAMENT ON 3 NOVEMBER 2021



Name and Constituency of Member of Parliament

Ms Cheryl Chan Wei Ling

MP for East Coast GRC



Question No. 2126



To ask the Minister for Health under the living with COVID-19 model, how long will the free vaccine booster shots remain available for those who are medically eligible.



Answer



In a pandemic crisis, Government has extended full subsidies for nationally recommended vaccinations, including boosters, that offer protection against COVID-19.  As we progressively transit to living with COVID-19 as an endemic disease, we will monitor the global and local situation, and periodically review the need for booster doses of COVID-19 vaccinations, and whether they should remain fully subsidised.
