Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has said he had received a Covid-19 vaccine booster shot and urged other elderly people to come forward to get a shot amid a new wave of infections across the city-state, Reuters reports.
"Cases are increasing rapidly. A booster jab will strengthen your protection against Covid-19," Lee, 69, said in a post on his Facebook page.
The Southeast Asia country has started giving boosters to the elderly and immunocompromised groups this week.
