Unvaccinated people are being discriminated by the MTF for all the wrong reasons. Just because the govt wants as many people to be vaccinated so that they can open up the country to allow people from dangerous and highly infected countries and holding questionable vaccine certificates from countries when fakes are as common as toilet papers, nasty discriminatory measures would be in forced to attain this questionable objective.
Some of the reasons given were controversial and hardly could stand on the good grounds of being reasonable and acceptable to the medical community.
1. Unvaccinated people are more likely to be infected than those vaccinated. False. There were reports that said both are equally likely to be infected. That is why they are changing the tune to say vaccinated means less serious illness, no more prevention of infection.
2. Unvaccinated people are more likely to spread the virus than those vaccinated. False. Both equally can spread the virus. In fact, an unvaccinated person is less likely to infect others as he will come down with the infection. A vaccinated person may happily walk around with the virus without knowing it and thus more likely to infect others.
3. Unvaccinated people are more likely to end up hospitalised or dead than those vaccinated. False. Where is the data to prove this position. A swallow does not a summer maketh. Quoting and blowing one or two cases do not prove that this is true.
Whether vaccinated or not vaccinated, both are equally likely to be infected and also to pass the virus to people around them. The repeat broadcasting of elderly people dying because of unvaccinated did not give a fair picture, that younger picture are less likely to die. Many elderly would die with or without the virus when their time is up.
The govt also contributed to many people not getting vaccinated by their stubborn and thick headed insistence that only Pfizer and Moderna should be used. One man's meat is another man's poison. And it is morally and medically wrong to insist that people must use Pfizer and Moderna when they have been proven to have more adverse consequences and even resulting in death. They are not ranked lower than Chinese vaccines and Astrazeneca by NYT for no good reasons.
Countries are also starting to approve Ivermectin as another option. This development is likely a confirmation that all they hype about vaccines to prevent infection is falling apart, ineffective. If they are, there is no need to approve Ivermectin.
Stop the silly discrimination on Chinese vaccines and let everyone choose whichever vaccines that have been approved by WHO. In this case, the MTF is not any wiser than the experts around the world. Stop the stupidity as time would tell if the MTF is right or wrong or acting stupid and dangerous.
At this moment in time, the truth is still out there and many could be proven wrong as the pandemic continues. Do not be cock sure when you do not know what the outcome would be tomorrow. Stop playing God, could turn out to be Satan if proven wrong.
Stop the discrimination against the unvaccinated, and stop vaccine discrimination.
The unvaccinated Singaporeans did not bring virus into the country. Period. It is the foreigners that are bringing the virus into the island. The Singaporeans, vaccinated or unvaccinated, must be protected from foreigners that brought the virus into the island, from the people that allowed this to happen.
"Only fair to protect vulnerable in S'pore against Covid-19 spread by unvaccinated people" - ST's Salma Khalik, Is this a fair statement? Or should it be the other way round, that it is only fair to protect the vulnerable from vaccinated people as many would become asymptomatic, infected without knowing it and spreading to everyone. How to prevent this?
What is the truth? What do you think?
The most dangerous belief the MTF is relying on is that vaccinated people are safe to mixed around and be free as if they are normal. The truth is that they are the most dangerous people walking around and probably spreading the virus.
All it needs is 3 months from now to see if the MTF belief is safe or unsafe. By then we will all know the answer.

LONDON, Aug 6 (Reuters) - There are early signs that people who have
been vaccinated against COVID-19 may be able to transmit the Delta
variant of the virus as easily as those who have not, scientists at
Public Health England (PHE) said on Friday.
The findings chime
with those from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
which last week raised concerns that vaccinated people infected with
Delta could, unlike with other variants, readily transmit it.
