if compare effectiveness against intensive care admissions, both are near
if compare against infection mRNA do have advantage but probably due to high antibodies but that will wane off.
mRNA technology is not necessary evil but because of inflammation cause by spike protein and mutation,
to some or many overshadow its strength.

All passengers must redo PCR test at airport upon touchdown. Quarantine is a must, can’t be exempted. Need to quarantine for 14 days at City of arrival, then another 7-14 days at destination city. Total 21-28 days. 4-6 PCR tests will be conducted during quarantine.
In rest of the world including Spore, vaccination is everything although it is not 100% effective. Quarantine has been waved to facilitate cross border travelling and reopening of economy.

Yiu are bot bulletproof after you are fully vaccinated. Israel had 8k-20k cases per day after majority of population was fully vaccinated, among these cases large number are breakthrough cases, Israel is only using Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. After 82% of population has fully vaccinated, daily cases in Spore jumped 10 folds, 3.5k new cases per day, mostly breakthrough cases. Vaccine is a false hope for garment to reopen the economy...even after you are fully vaccinated, you will still get infected. So vaccine is not a silver bullet, that is why we are told to live with Covid for the coming years after majority of us are fully vaccinated.

Maybe not safe enough.
I concern for those who medically cannot take the jab.
And I feel vaccines can be make safer and method is likely already available
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov › pmc › articles › PMC8099545
Nasal vaccines offer an attractive alternative to injectable vaccines in that it may be possible to use a lower dose than for IM/SC injection, the vaccine can be delivered to the appropriate site, namely the NALT, nasal vaccines do not necessarily require to be administered by a health-care person, and it is a better alternative for vaccination ...
lower dose very likely make it more safer
Else nasal spray inhibitor can be offer, it will help reduce the chance of developing into serious conditions
even if they are infected.
We need to improve so must the vaccine as well.

Your understanding is, vaccines are 100% effective against Covid, Delta and many other variants.
Wrong lah, vaccines are only effective to some extent but are unable to protect us from Delta variant, that is why we are having so many breakthrough cases everyday. Must wait for the new vaccines that are effective against Delta and other variants in coming year.
Question: Why quarantine is required for people entering a country from overseas even after these people’s PCR test results are negative 72 hours before departure and they are fully vaccinated?
Answer: 1. Vaccines are only effective against Covid snd Delta variant to some extent, much less than 100%; 2. Although PCR test shows negative, there are chances for a passenger to get infected on the plane and at airport....these are number of such cases reported before...to be 100% sure these passengers have to do another PCR test known arrival at the airport. 3. Quarantine is required because it takes time for a person to show symptoms after getting infected. A person has negative PCR test result before boarding the plane, later gets infected on the plane by another passenger, upon touchdown his PCR test result on the spot could still be negative. A few days after he starts quarantine at hotel, he starts having fever and shows other Covid symptoms, when the doctor dies another PCR test, the result is Positive.
Therefore to play safe quarantine is still required. It is too risky to trust vaccination history as vaccines are not 100% secure, and too casual to accept PCR test result conducted 3 days earlier.

I am woking in a consulting firm, businesses and employees are suffering and worried about the future if WE DO NOT move forward.
Because of a few selfish egoistic fuggs, the rest of the country have to suffer.
As for those medically unable to vax, gov will come out with ways to accommodate. Till then the gov need to worry and address 10 of thousand maybe into the hundreds of selfish prats
Btw, all knows I am an opposition supporter and never voted for those white country selling thieves, but in times like these we should hold back our political views and work together as a nation to fight on.

the inconvenience of testing can be arguable to protect themselves and others..
But we cannot be sure that unvac are the ones the cause the spreading, so it is unfair to penalize them for higher medical fee.
Especially no real improve in the vaccination or treatment methods yet
And it seems targeting the non working elderly.
So cannot agreed with you.

Part of the herd immunity processes. Vaccination provides protection but some will die but many will live. Part of endemic process
Many times I stated vaccine is not immunisation and have stated, never 100% but give us a good fight chance which through 2021, proven so. Anyway, only fools believe in 100% … only death is 100% certain. I assume you misunderstand my understanding.
As for the rest … sorry.

China is taking a different approach from rest of the world, while many countries like Korea, Spore and Vietnam give up Zero Tolerance strategy to live with the virus, China still carries on with its tight border control to stop the virus entering the country while eliminating outbreaks in different cities instantly, no country can do that, only CCP can do so.

Btw, it's not we targeting the the sickly and elderly, CoVid is.
The real issue is… if you are medically fit to jab…. why dun you? Is it very selfish.

full medical fees for unvaccinated policy clearly targeting for those not in labour force
It is not that medical fit are without risk, imagine those unemployed elderly face risk of injury
, no compensation if they still alive.
Some of them if can avoid, will avoid vaccination.
How can you be sure is unvaccinated that wanted to infect others or to be infected?
So what selfish to talk about.

You totally miss that the risk of getting injury on medical fit person.
Even sinovac sinopharm carry much less risk, it is no 100%.
Why would they take the risk if they are alone or jobless.
R: Huh, what you talking about? Risk …. risk of getting infected by someone in your family.
You keep saying they are selfish.
Are you sure they infecting others?
Some could be stay alone, hardly go out..
R: Did I mentioned about you infecting others? Already clearly state vaccination PREVENT serious illness which do not required medical resoouces. What infecting others?
From what I read, you are an elderly who refuse to jab. It's not about you infecting others …. its others infecting you and you required medical resources which can be prevented. If you are medically able but refuse to vax, then you are selfish because you may GET infected and thus required medical resources which can be avoided.
My booster shots coming soon, I know the risk because we are at WAR, WAR with Covid… if in a battle everyone scare to charge at the enemy, you are no good for the country. So dun complain about foreign traxhes taking over SG,
I am not a hero but I am sure I am not a coward.
