- Covid-19 vaccines will join Singapore’s national immunisation schedules from Oct 12 to keep them accessible and affordable.

- MOH and CDA urge people aged 60 and above, medically vulnerable people, aged care residents, and close contacts or healthcare workers to get vaccinated.

- The vaccine stays free for eligible groups, with updated doses available at GP clinics, polyclinics and mobile sites; first-time and booster timings are set.

SINGAPORE – Covid-19 vaccines will be included in two national vaccination schedules from Oct 12, with three groups of people recommended to take the jabs.

In a media release on Oct 7, the Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Communicable Diseases Agency (CDA) said those aged 60 years and above, medically vulnerable people aged six months and above, and residents of aged care facilities should get the jabs .

Healthcare workers and those living or working with medically vulnerable people are also encouraged to get the vaccine to help protect those around them, MOH and CDA said.

The vaccine will be added to the National Childhood Immunisation Schedule – which covers the period from a person’s birth till 17 years – and the National Adult Immunisation Schedule – which caters to people aged 18 years and over – to ensure the vaccine remains accessible and affordable for the public, according to MOH and CDA.

This is because Covid-19 will continue to circulate and pose a risk of severe disease, particularly among older and medically vulnerable people, MOH and CDA added.

The vaccine was first offered under the National Vaccination Programme in 2020 during the pandemic.

It will continue to be free for Singapore citizens, permanent residents, long-term pass holders and certain other pass holders, at participating clinics, polyclinics and mobile vaccination sites under further review.

Those who are receiving Covid-19 jabs for the first time should receive two doses, eight weeks apart if they are aged from six months to four years, or one dose if they are aged five years and older.

Those aged six months and above and were previously vaccinated should get an additional dose around one year (and at least five months) after their last dose.

Covid-19 vaccinations will not be claimable under MediSave 500 or MediSave 700 (or the MediSave Chronic and Preventive Care scheme from Jan 1, 2027) until further review, since it continues to be fully subsidised for selected groups of people here.

From Oct 12, updated Covid-19 vaccines will also be available at more than 600 GP clinics, all polyclinics, and mobile vaccination sites.

Appointments at participating clinics can be booked at https://vaccine.gov.sg/covid . Contact the GP clinic to confirm vaccine availability before visiting.

Appointments at polyclinics can be booked through HealthHub. Those enrolled in Healthier SG should visit their enrolled clinic for Covid-19 vaccination if the clinic offers the jabs, MOH and CDA said.

- 为确保疫苗的可及性和可负担性，新冠疫苗将于10月12日起纳入新加坡国家免疫计划。

- 卫生部和社区发展署敦促60岁及以上人士、体弱多病人士、养老院居民、密切接触者或医护人员接种疫苗。

- 符合条件的群体仍可免费接种疫苗，全科诊所、综合诊所和流动接种点均可提供最新剂量；首次接种和加强接种时间已确定。

新加坡——从10月12日起，新冠疫苗将被纳入两项国家疫苗接种计划，建议三类人群接种疫苗。

10 月 7 日，卫生部和传染病机构在一份媒体声明中表示，60 岁及以上的老年人、6 个月及以上的易感人群以及养老院居民应该接种疫苗。

卫生部和社区发展署表示，鼓励医护人员以及与易感人群共同生活或工作的人员接种疫苗，以帮助保护他们周围的人。

卫生部和儿童发展署表示，该疫苗将被纳入国家儿童免疫计划（涵盖从出生到 17 岁）和国家成人免疫计划（适用于 18 岁及以上人群），以确保公众能够获得价格合理且负担得起的疫苗。

卫生部和社区发展署补充说，这是因为新冠病毒将继续传播，并构成重症风险，尤其是在老年人和体弱多病的人群中。

该疫苗于 2020 年疫情期间首次在国家疫苗接种计划下提供。

新加坡公民、永久居民、长期准证持有者及其他特定准证持有者仍可在参与活动的诊所、综合诊所和流动疫苗接种点免费接种疫苗，具体情况将进一步审查。

首次接种新冠疫苗的人，如果年龄在 6 个月至 4 岁之间，应接种两剂，间隔 8 周；如果年龄在 5 岁及以上，则应接种一剂。

六个月及以上且以前接种过疫苗的人，应在最后一次接种后约一年（至少五个月）再接种一剂。

在进一步审查之前，新冠肺炎疫苗接种费用将无法通过 MediSave 500 或 MediSave 700（或从 2027 年 1 月 1 日起的 MediSave 慢性病和预防保健计划）报销，因为目前本地部分人群仍可享受全额补贴。

从 10 月 12 日起，超过 600 家全科诊所、所有综合诊所和流动疫苗接种点也将提供更新的 Covid-19 疫苗。

您可以通过 https://vaccine.gov.sg/covid 预约参与活动的诊所接种疫苗。请在前往诊所前联系全科医生诊所确认疫苗供应情况。

卫生部和公民发展署表示，已加入“健康新加坡”（Healthier SG）计划的民众可通过HealthHub预约综合诊疗所的就诊。如果相关诊疗所提供新冠疫苗接种，已加入该计划的民众应前往其注册诊疗所接种疫苗。
