For traveling purpose if above 50 but not taken 4th jab does it mean it’s not fully vax?
Also for those above 50,can they take the booster from comralty or do they hv to switch to moderns spikevax (only avail after mid Oct at selected centres only). I realise news reporting on this is not v clear, MOH is also not v clear

For travelling purposes, it depends on the country you are going to. A lot of countries don't even check vaccination status now. In general, when they did, 3 doses counted as \"fully vaccinated\".

No requirement to switch - if you wish to stick to the same one as you've had so far, no problems with that. When I went for my 2nd booster, I was given a choice.

I think need a gap of 5mth to a year.

Will try on this Friday evening after work as the commencement date is changed from 17 Oct to 14 Oct 2022. Even though they don't allow me to take now, can wait one more month....no harm to try first.

Didn't say 1 year from the 14th day post-booster, or from date of booster injection?

Am planning my trip which will coincide with my booster anniversary. I am still a Covid-virgin...

Hopefully this will urge those who let their guard down be more wary.

For those who caught covid, were your symptoms serious?

Mine is cough, some discomfort in the throat when coughing, a slight fever in day 1 or 2, a little bit of runny nose.
