Recently, we are seeing more children being infected with COVID-19. Vaccination remains one of the best ways to keep ourselves safe. We want to protect as many people as possible, and as soon as possible. We are extending vaccinations to more age groups. We will also stretch the interval between doses to 6-8 weeks, from the current 3-4 weeks. These steps will enable more Singaporeans to get their first dose sooner.
The Multi-Ministry Task Force is tracking the situation closely. Vaccinated or not, do stay home as much as possible, to reduce possible exposure to the virus. If you must head out, make sure to wear a mask with good filtration efficiency, such as those issued by The People's Association or Temasek Foundation.
Let us stay calm and resilient. We will get through this and overcome the virus. – LHL
