Sinovac (Us) VS Pfizer/Moderna (Them):
First, we had to navigate thru the long queues or jammed online booking.
Then we had to find our own way to the clinics (no free Grab service).
Then we had to wait along the corridors and sometimes under the sun (no big facilities set up w chairs or support team).
Then we had to pay $15-$25 for the jabs (not FOC).
Then we're told we're not "fully vaccinated" and are not added to the national vaccination numbers.
Then we have to do pre-event testing for conferences, weddings, and even church services (we realllly enjoy the nose swabs!)
Then we have to excuse ourselves from the elite gathering of "fully vaccinated" people.
No we're not Discriminated. We're doing very well. Thank you.

With so many countries already taking Sinovac, they should end discrimination.

Does the gov knows that they are alienating citizens with this discriminatory ruling? Those who by choice or health reasons decided against the mRNA vaccines.
What messages is gov sending out to WHO, PRC and everyone? That sinovac is inferior? How will PRC react in future and how does the gov envisage opening up when majority of the people in this region are taking the Chinese vaccines?

What medicine are you boiling in your pot? ...a Chinese saying. Discrimination can bring forth hurts..anger..resentment...inconvenience. ..a sense of power abused. Really dont make sense to do that. Only 2-way traffic runs in harmony. If people listen to your voice, you too have to listen to the voices of your people if they are reasonable in their requests. Vaccines are vaccines if approved..why different category? It's like western food get grade A and Chinese food grade B.

Vaccine discrimination is wrong and immoral. Sinovac has been given to 1.38 billion Chinese and many millions around the world. It is also more effective than the yearly Flu vaccine. Why then is the Flu vaccine approved every year, but not Sinovac during a raging Pandemic. To quote the CDC website: "CDC conducts studies each year to determine how well the influenza (flu) vaccine protects against flu illness. While vaccine effectiveness (VE) can vary, recent studies show that flu vaccination reduces the risk of flu illness by between 40% and 60% among the overall population during seasons when most circulating flu viruses are well-matched to the flu vaccine"

It's only right that every citizen must be given a choice to select the vaccine they want. It's their own body that is been placed at risk. Very angry that self appointed elites who are biased against China hijacked our every right to choice by formulating discriminatory policies. If this is allowed, the people have every right to start a class action sue against them if anything happened to them for forcing them to take vaccines of their choice.

Take a look of China now. The number of Covid cases is very very low as compared with the United States, Europe.and the rest of the world. If Sinovac is not effective, how does China manage to keep Covid to its minimum. The rest of the world are using vaccines mainly manufactured in the States. How is the result? Why is Singapore joining USA in this political game? Can we be clear minded and fair?
I fully agree with the writer.
歧视已经受到世卫认可的科兴疫苗是可笑的行径，科兴疫苗比任何其他疫苗都安全可靠！！希望当局擦亮眼，重新调整政策，不然很多新加坡人不干！
