It is a conjugate vaccine that protects against invasive disease and pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. PCV20 covers the strains in PCV13, plus 7 additional strains. Why is it recommended? Pneumococcal disease can lead to severe illness, including pneumonia, meningitis, and even death. The PCV20 vaccine offers a simpler, one-dose regimen for many patients. Recommended for individuals with weak immune system (e.g., Rheumatoid Arthritis, Gout, Lupus, Diabetes, Asthma) Possible Side Effects Similar to most vaccines, the pneumococcal vaccines can sometimes cause mild side effects. These include: Low grade fever Redness / mild swelling at the injection site Lethargy or muscle ache Shingle Vaccination (Shingrix) Shingrix is a recombinant herpes zoster vaccine that effectively prevents shingles and its complications. Previously, the cost of Shingrix made it less accessible, but after discussions between MOH and the manufacturer, the price has been reduced to ensure it is cost-effective and accessible to those who need it most. Who Should Get Shingrix? Shingrix is recommended for: All adults aged 60 years and above Immunocompromised adults aged 18 to 59 years Who has acquired Chickenpox previously. What if I have already taken the Zostavax vaccine? If you have previously received the Zostavax vaccine, you can still get the Shingrix (RHZV) vaccine. Wait at least 5 years after your Zostavax dose before getting Shingrix. For adults aged 70 or older: A shorter interval of at least 1 year may be considered. Possible Side Effects Shingrix is generally well-tolerated. Some individuals may experience: Mild pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site Fatigue, headache, or muscle aches Fever or gastrointestinal discomfort These effects are usually temporary and resolve within a few days. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Vaccine The Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common respiratory virus that can lead to severe illness, especially in high-risk individuals. The RSV vaccine offers a powerful way to prevent serious complications. Who is at Risk? Infants and young children Adults aged 60 and above Adults aged 50–59 with underlying chronic conditions, such as: Heart or lung disease Diabetes Kidney disease Immunosuppression Why Vaccinate? High-Risk Groups : The vaccine helps protect high-risk individuals from severe RSV-related complications, such as pneumonia, bronchiolitis, and the worsening of existing conditions like asthma or COPD, which can require hospitalization. Pregnant Women & Newborns: Pregnant women can also receive the vaccine between 32 and 36 weeks of pregnancy and pass immunity to their babies, providing essential protection against severe RSV infections after birth. Vaccine Schedule A single dose of the RSV vaccine is recommended for adults and during each pregnancy.

A blood sample will be taken from you and sent to a laboratory, where different foods can be tested. People with food allergy may manifest as lip swelling, rash and hives, vomiting, stomach pain and diarrhoea after indigestion.

These include: Stuffy or runny nose Sneezing Itchy, watery eyes Hives (a rash with raised red patches) Diarrhea Vomiting Shortness of breath Coughing Wheezing Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document and a deed that empowers you to plan for the unexpected. This allows you to appoint a trusted individual(s) known as your “donee(s)” to make decisions on your behalf should you lose your mental capacity in the future. This could be due to reasons like dementia, a severe accident, or even a temporary illness. The LPA also gives the authority to the Donee to sign deeds on the Donor’s behalf. Some examples of deeds include: An instrument used to appoint another individual to act on your behalf An instrument used to transfer an interest in immovable property (in the case of an LPA, Donee(s) may be able to do so on behalf of the Donor if they are granted property & affairs powers as defined in the LPA) Benefits of LPA Peace of mind : Knowing your loved ones are not burdened by complex choices during a difficult time, knowing your wishes are being respected even if you could not express them yourself provides immense comfort for you and your loved ones. Empowerment : You get to choose the person(s) you trust to make decisions in your best interest.

How is Antigen Rapid Test (ART) different from Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Swab Test? Antigen test is a point of care test. This test detects protein fragments specific to the Coronavirus. It can be done instantly and the turnaround time for the result is within 20-30 minutes whereas PCR test. PCR testing is for SARS-CoV-2 detection. This test actually detects RNA that is specific to the virus and can detect the virus within days of infection, even those who have no symptoms. The turnaround time of the results takes around 24 hours to 48 hours. What does a false negative or false positive mean? In those who don’t have symptoms, the false negative rate — meaning my test is negative but I actually have the disease — can be as high as 50%. This can have tremendous consequences as we try to contain the spread of COVID-19. False positive results means you are tested positive but you do not really have the disease. What if I have a negative rapid test but still have symptoms? Current recommendation is to have a confirmation test performed (the PCR test) if you still have symptoms and have had a negative rapid test. This is especially true if you’ve had a high-risk exposure. A high risk exposure is considered more than 15 minutes of contact with a COVID-positive individual in a 24-hour period and you have been within 6 feet of this individual. Is the Antigen Rapid Test (ART) painful? ART involves using a nasal swab from the lower part of the nose and should not be uncomfortable. Can I have a hard copy of the Antigen Rapid Testing (ART) results? Yes, you may request for a hardcopy of the ART results free of charge at our clinic. Is there any consultation fee charged to the test? There will be no consultation fees or additional charges for the service. However, if you are consulting for other medical conditions, you will be billed accordingly. What if the result is inconclusive? If your Antigen Rapid Test (ART) result turned out inconclusive, a repeat test will be conducted on the spot. Does Cervical Cancer run in families? Maybe. Cervical Cancer might be hereditary. Does the vaccination offer lifetime protection? Not at this moment. The long term efficacy of the vaccine is still under evaluation and research. What is the vaccination schedule like? For Gardasil, the schedule is at 0,2,6 month. For Cervarix, the schedule is at 0,1,6 month. Any side effects of the vaccine? Minimal side effects such as pain, swelling and redness at the site of the injection and generalised reactions such as fever are some of the common side effects. The two vaccines have been approved as safe and effective by Health Science Authority of Singapore. Do I still need to do Pap smears test if I have had the vaccine? Yes, you are still recommended to go for your pap smear once every three year. About 30% cervical cancer cases are caused by HPV sub-types which the vaccine does not protect against. In other words, the vaccines do not protect against ALL cancer-causing HPV sub-types. Can Medisave be used to pay for cervical cancer vaccination? Yes, ladies age 9 to 26 can use their medisave account to pay for the above vaccine. Why is it important to vaccinate boys with HPV vaccine? Gardasil vaccine can be given to boys as young as 9 years old to men up to 45 years old for prevention of genital warts, penis and rectum cancer. How safe is the HPV vaccine during pregnancy? This vaccine is not recommended for pregnant females. What is a Skin Prick Test? A skin prick test is as simple as pricking your skin and inserting a small amount of substance and checks for immediate allergic reactions. It is usually within 20 minutes and is usually done to identify allergies to pollen, mold, pet dander, dust mites and foods. It is usually performed on the forearm and upper back. What happens during a Skin Prick Test? During a Skin Prick Test, the test site will be sanitized with alcohol. Small marks on your skin will be drawn and a drop of allergen extract will be applied next to each marking. A lancet will then be used to prick the extracts into the skin’s surface. A new lancet will be used for each allergen. Within 20 minutes, your skin will be observed for signs of allergic reactions. If you are allergic to one of the allergens tested, a raised, red, itchy bump known as a wheal will develop on your skin. The bump’s size will be measured and recorded. Lastly, your skin will be cleaned with alcohol to remove the marks. Is Skin Prick Test Painful? It is usually not painful. Skin Prick Test uses lancets that barely penetrate the skin’s surface. It doesn’t cause bleeding and it won’t feel more than a mild, momentary discomfort. How do I prepare for the Skin Prick Test? Do tell your doctor about all the medicines that you’re currently taking as some medications can interfere with the results of the Skin Prick Test. You are advised to avoid taking these certain medications for up to 10 days. Medications that can interfere with skin tests include: Antihistamines such as hydroxyzine, loratadine, chlorpheniramine and cetirizine Tricyclic antidepressants such as nortriptyline and desipramine Some Heartburn medications such as cimetidine and ranitidine Is Skin Prick Test safe? Usually, the most common side effect of the Skin Prick Test is raised, red, itchy bumps known as wheals. It is rare that a severe immediate allergic reaction happens, but rest assured as the skin prick test will only be performed at our clinic where appropriate emergency equipment and medications are available. However, in some circumstances, Skin Prick Tests aren’t recommended. You may be advised against Skin Prick Test if you: Have ever had a severe allergic reaction, known as anaphylaxis Take medications that could affect the test results, but it is not recommended that you discontinue the medications just for the Skin Prick Test Have severe eczema or psoriasis that affects large areas of skin on your arms and back. In such cases, a blood test may be for you. How do you test for allergy with a blood test? A blood test can be done to measure your immune system’s response to specific foods by measuring the level of immunoglobulin (IgE) which is an antibody. A blood sample will be taken from you and sent to a laboratory, where different foods can be tested. People with food allergy may manifest as lip swelling, rash and hives, vomiting, stomach pain and diarrhoea after indigestion. Those with history of drug allergy, allergic sinusitis, asthma or skin sensitivity are more likely to develop food allergy. Do make an appointment online to start getting tested and start managing your allergy. Why do I need an allergy blood test? Your health care provider may order allergy testing if you have symptoms of an allergy. These include: Stuffy or runny nose Sneezing Itchy, watery eyes Hives (a rash with raised red patches) Diarrhea Vomiting Shortness of breath Coughing Wheezing Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test? You don't need any special preparations for an allergy blood test. Are there any risks to the test? There is very little risk to having an allergy blood test. You may have slight pain or bruising at the spot where the needle was put in, but most symptoms go away quickly. I have eczema. Can I do the allergy test? Yes. Eczema is frequently associated with other allergic conditions such as asthma, hay fever, and food allergy. Children whose parents suffer from asthma and/or various allergies are more likely to develop eczema than those whose parents have no history of allergic diseases. The following are some of the common factors or phenomena that can trigger a worsening of eczema: Pollen, mould, dust mites, animals, and certain foods (for those allergic to them) Cold and dry air Colds or the flu Skin contact with irritating chemicals Skin contact with rough materials such as wool Experiencing of intense emotions such as stress Fragrances or dyes in skin lotions and soaps What are the document needed for childhood vaccination?

A mild rash (that lasts for two days) may occur 5 to 12 days after the MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella) vaccination. What should I do if my child misses his/her vaccination schedule?
