Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) has granted interim authorisation for the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine to be used here under the Pandemic Special Access Route (PSAR).

In a release, HSA revealed the vaccine is approved for people 18 years old and above, and the vaccination regime submitted by Moderna requires two doses of vaccine to be administered 28 days apart.

This is slightly different from the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which is approved for people 16 years old and above and requires two doses administered 21 days apart.
