Singhealth have said today (24 Oct) that 111 patients and 6 staffs who received their vaccine shots from Bukit Merah Polyclinic between Oct 20 to Oct 22 were given lower dosages due to an error.
The dosages that they received was at 10 percent of what was the recommended dosage, and it happened because the markings that were on a new syringe which the clinic has just introduced was not identified correctly.
After the error was discovered, Singhealth immediately reached out to patients who are affected to determine the error’s extent.
All of them has been contacted and will be arranged to take a full dosage replacement vaccine, after being assessed by a doctor.
Singhealth also mentioned that based on the current vaccination guidelines by the Ministry of Health (MOH), it is unlikely that the reduced dosage that they receive will cause any negative reactions, and it is safe for them to get the replacement dosage offered.
Investigations by Singhealth also showed that this incident is a standalone, and the services at other polyclinics are not affected.
Actions have also been taken to ensure that this incident will not be repeated.
CEO of Singhealth polyclinic, Adrian Ee, also apologised for the inconvenience that this incident caused to the affected patients and their family members.
He added that staff have been educated on the correct procedures in administering the vaccine using the new syringe.

I left my job as a banker 2 years ago and went into insurance. As a start, I do not have a stable income and could not contribute to the family expenses. My wife is not supportive of my decision. She is only earning 3k a month and we have been relying on her salary to pay for bills and expenses for the past 2 years.
Due to covid, i am facing a lot of challenges at work (still an insurance newbie… need to find prospects… couldn’t meet clients etc) and instead of being understanding, she kept complaining about me not bringing money home.
She told me many times that she is struggling with the amount of money left for herself and that I should be doing my job too and not let her be the sole contributor of income in the family.
“It is ok if you want to sell insurance.. but what if forever no sales how? You need to learn when to give up. Maybe you should try to do some part-time jobs? Like food deliveries? Our priority now is to bring money back! We have a son to feed!”
She wants me to give her a deadline? Like how? I am trying to meet people! Instead of encouraging me, she kept using words like “useless” “impractical” “childish” on me.
I started confiding in an ex-classmate, who is also one of my insurance prospects. I told her about my wife not being understanding etc and she is really the complete opposite. Nah, We are just purely friends… she is not my type. I just wonder why cant my wife be like her?
I have zoom meetings and training almost every day and those meetings are very mentally draining. She scolds me when I nap and leave the son to her. She said that if I cannot contribute financially, i should be helping her with the kid.
Am i really not practical? Advice please.
PS: sorry my english not good. Pardon my grammar mistakes
A YP posted a photo of himself with a bird on his hand.
He was seen putting his illegal vape in the mouth of the bird and asking his viewers not to “bao toh” him, saying that the vape belongs to the bird.

A user on Facebook recently shared a post about a Mixed Vegetable Rice shop located at Block 267 Compassvale Link giving out free meals to those in need.
In his post, he praises them for their efforts and says that their dishes are slightly different from most Mixed Veg Rice stalls.
He recommends their sweet and sour pork as well as pig’s liver which he says that he does not see it often in other stalls.
The Chinese characters on the A4 sized paper that is pasted on their display panel loosely translate to:
“If you have no income and are facing a difficult time, you can walk in and let us know that you need a meal to fill up your tummy. You can leave after having your meal. In future when you are doing better, please remember to help people by your side who are in need, thank you.”
