Singapore will soon begin rolling out booster shots for Covid-19 vaccinations for elderly and immunocompromised persons.

This was revealed in the country’s Covid-19 Multi-Ministerial Task Force (MTF) on Sep 3.

In a release, Singapore’s Health Ministry said with the more transmissible Delta variant, it is not likely that countries can achieve herd immunity without a very high population vaccination rate of well over 90%.
