Your 2nd dose was on 1 Apr or earlier?
Is the 6 mth gap btn 2nd dose and booster dose a must?

I was notified for my booster shot about a week short of the 6 months.

Just before taking our booster shot, was chit-chatting with MIL & dawn on me one possibility esp for those who took Pfizer wld hv efficacy worn out by now, hence probably easier to catch the Delta variant. Maybe explains why the numbers shot up besides the more transmissible Delta. That’s one of the reason for my choice to switch for Moderna booster.

While isolation for Covid positive individuals has always been practised, the protocols on close contacts have been changing a lot, a lot. Resulting in confusion and chaos on the ground.

Just wondering, for patients who have recovered after completing their 7 or 10 days isolation - do u know if they are exempted from QO touchwood should their close contacts come down with it subsequently?

Had our 1st shot in late March & 2nd shot mid-Apr. Booster shot encouraged. It’s yr decision. MIL says she’ll do yearly or as recommended by MOH, just as she diligently do her flu shots yearly.

I thought about this Domino Effect too, whereby family member gets stuck in the QO/HRS cycle one after another. You need to join the Telegram group where there'll be people looking at your household situation on case-by-case basis. There are so many diff situations & permutations shared in that support group. Got a headache after skimming thru some sticky situations, e.g one elderly PUQ got ferried from comm hosp to hosp around the island to look for a bed!

Part of the confusion/frustration stems from our fear of contravening the IDA. Should I stay or should I go? Can I go or must I stay? Will I be charged if I step out one minute earlier? Both QO and HRW are legally binding. HRA is not.

QO person is paid allowance, whereas HRW and HRA persons are not.

nobody dares to give advice cos scared to give wrong advice lol!

best to join the telegram group - OYK says MOH has ‘infiltrated’ the telegram group and will help to answer questions right? That should be the best place to ask.
