Singapore is considering requiring its residents to get a booster shot to qualify as fully vaccinated against COVID-19, its health minister said on Tuesday, as it seeks to protect its population from the Omicron variant.
The city-state of 5.5 million people currently allows only those counted as fully vaccinated - or recipients of two shots - to enter malls or dine in at restaurants or at hawker stalls.
From Jan. 1 it will bar unvaccinated employees from entering workplaces, unless they undergo tests each time.So far, 87% of Singapore residents have received at least two shots and 31% have had a booster.
