A YP recently underwent his Covid-19 vaccination at Hong Kah Secondary School.
He then decided to start shaking his body and fake a seizure after his vaccination during the 30 minutes waiting period.
Apparently he was dared by his father to do so.
A staff member then asked if he was alright and took his temperature, and the YP then said that the “motherf*cker” was looking at him and discussing something with the other medics.
He added: “Limpeh quite scared now.”
He then discovered CCTVs in the room and said: “F*ck, got 2 CCTVs in this room.”
MOH then sent him a message after his vaccination exercise, noting the “adverse reactions” that he exhibited and referred him to the staff of NUH, who will be contacting him ASAP.
The YP then shared that his father has been laughing at the text message from MOH.
