Now she has been asked to go for her 3rd shot. She thought she can go for either Sinovac or Sinopharm, but she is not given those as her choice.
She wrote to MOH and the reply is still the same : no Sinovac or Sinopharm for her. She was asked to go to vaccination centre for the doctor to assess!
So, she went to polyclinic. The advice :
Option 1 : Get her 3rd Pfizer jab and manage the allergy!
Option 2 : make appointment to see a specialist in 6 month's time (can't get earlier appointment!) to assess.
I just wonder why it's so difficult for them to offer her Sinovac or Sinopharm???
Sinovac and sinopharm are accepted as the first round of vaccination already ....
Now is booster ...whether can switch to non RNA type ...for myself I also prefer. I am not sure why govt does not allow...
For woman with allergic reaction she should be given a choice to switch....not sure why not?...Is matter of govt paying for it or it is not counted as booster?
So far they have not expired people's vaccination status.
