This is Jamus Lim's view on vaccination. (posted on his facebook on 26 October). He knows that there are risks both ways. Very sensible.

I just had my booster shot at the facility at
#SengkangGRC Community Club this morning. As I’d shared previously, I believe that vaccination—while certainly presenting risks—confers more benefits than costs, and I encourage all that are comfortable with taking the shot to do so. Our two-year-old isn’t eligible for a vaccine, and we live with my 70-year-old Mom, so a big motivation for me to be vaccinated is to protect them, my loved ones.
At the same time, I understand that not everyone is able to take the jabs, and the
#workersparty has (and will continue to) voice out for those who are unable to be vaccinated for medical reasons (along with many, many other questions on COVID19-related public health policy). I am glad that the government has already taken some steps to ensure that there isn’t inadvertent discrimination of individuals that are unable to choose, and I hope that they will continue to review their protocols to ensure that any unfairness is minimized, even as the country moves toward normalization in our daily lives.
