The
government-appointed "Expert Committee", being paid by the government,
said on Monday that there is no evidence that inactivated virus vaccines
demonstrate higher efficacy against COVID-19 variants than messenger
RNA (mRNA)-based vaccines.
"We have noted social media
messages asserting that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are ineffective
against (variants of concern) and that inactivated virus COVID-19
vaccines would provide superior protection.
The inactivated virus
COVID-19 vaccines have variable protection and there is currently no
evidence to suggest that inactivated virus vaccines demonstrate higher
vaccine efficacy against (variants of concerns) than the mRNA vaccines," said the Expert Committee in a press release on Monday.
The
two vaccines being used for the current National Vaccination Program
are from Pfizer-BioNtec and Modena. These vaccines use a new technology
mRNA instead of the traditional method of using inactivated viruses.
Curiously
and interestingly, the two new tech, untried and experimental Western
vaccines have been recommended by the "Expert Committee" who have
probably studied in the West or indoctrinated by the West, and were
quickly and readily accepted by the Multi-Ministry Task Force, who might
also studied in Western universities and brain-washed by Western
indoctrination.
In the other hand, the Sinovac vaccine uses the
traditional, tried and tested method as the vaccine used for chickenpox
for the last 100 years. It uses inactivated viruses. This is the
preferred vaccine by many old folks of Singapore, that the "Expert
Committee" not only did not recommend for inclusion into the National
Vaccination Program but seems to be attempting to run it down by saying
there is no evidence to show it is better. Such approach can only
discredit the so-called "Experts" themselves for being ingenious,
unethical and unprofessional.
Moreover, no evidence collected,
collated, processed, interpreted or used does not mean there is no
evidence out there in the cyberspace and in the world of 193 countries.
It simply means the "Experts" themselves
1. Have not come across such evidence.
2. Have disregarded such evidence.
3. Have preconceived ideas.
4. Have to safeguard self-image and protect the image of the MMTF.
5. Have made a great blunder.
Remember, the same "Expert Committee" has recommended to the government and the government has told all of us:
"YOU DO NOT NEED TO WEAR MASK IF YOU ARE NOT SICK. WEAR MASK ONLY IF YOU ARE UNWELL".
Last but not least, there is also no evidence for us to think that what
the few gentlemen in the appointed "Expert Committee" said are more
credible and trustworthy than what the myriads of people said in the
social media, out there in the Cyberspace!
