According to Health Minister Ong Ye Kung, there are trucks going around the neighbourhood to spread the message of vaccination to seniors.
He is seeking understanding as the trucks are promoting vaccination to elderlys who do not read the newspaper or use social media.
If you see a #IGotMyShot publicity truck in your neighbourhood, this means that a Mobile Vaccination Team is just around the corner.
I know it may disturb some residents, but I seek your understanding. The trucks will spread the message of vaccination, to seniors who may not read the papers, use social media or talk to friends and family members very much.
Do help to persuade seniors you know to come down and take their COVID-19 jabs. It is their best protection from severe illness if they get infected.
To our elderly, the trucks are a hark back to the kampung days. At that time, we had publicity trucks plying the neighbourhoods to raise awareness on key government programmes. For example, the mass vaccination for smallpox in 1959. It was a hard won battle.
Today, our way to protect our citizens from infectious diseases remains the same. #GetVaccinated!Vaccination locations can be found here: https://www.vaccine.gov.sg/locations
Yesterday the Singapore government announced an easing of COVID-19 rules and will allow dine-in soon.
However, this comes with some rules that require certain sector’s of unvaccinated staff to undergo ART kit test twice a week.
“Unvaccinated persons will be required to undergo regular testing to pick up possible infections early so that they can be treated early. This will also mitigate risk of transmission to their colleagues and the public.
This “vaccinate or regular test” regime will be introduced in the following settings:
Those working in the healthcare sector, eldercare sector and settings with children 12 years and below.
Individuals working in sectors that interact with customers in higher-risk mask-off settings, and at our borders or COVID-19 frontline work such as F&B establishments, gyms and fitness studios, and personal care services.
The Public Service will take the lead in introducing this requirement for public officers, including the uniformed services.
The requirement will take effect from 1 October 2021. Beyond that, any unvaccinated persons from the above sectors will have to be tested with an ART kit twice a week.
