        As young as 3 :scared:

        [quote]Children as young as three in Hong Kong will have access to the Chinese-made Sinovac coronavirus jab, with priority for those aged 12 to 17, following a latest government approval to extend the city’s vaccination drive to a wider group.

        The approval made on Saturday, which came a day after government advisers recommended lowering the vaccination age, was expected to pave the way for the resumption of full-day classes for all schools.

        The move will provide an alternative for teenagers, as only German-produced BioNTech vaccines are currently available to children aged 12 and above.[/quote]

            Actually inactivated vaccines have been used on babies for last 100 years? Sinovac belongs to inactivated class of virus. Guess biggest problem is not enough trial data. For Pfizer also the same. I wonder if we have 150 young children went KK to volunteer for the Pfizer trial

                    Are the infected patients fully vaccinated or not?

                        Thanks! I just copied the following point from that article:
                        \"Q: Under what circumstances are travellers entering Singapore required to pay for their own Covid-19 medical bills?
                        A: Singaporeans, PRs and LTP holders who test positive for the virus or have onset of symptoms within 14 days of their arrival in Singapore are responsible for all charges on their medical bills, according to the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority's SafeTravel Website.\"

                        So if you travel and catch the virus within 14 days of your return, you burn a big hole in your own wallet :sad:
