SINGAPORE (Reuters) – Singapore became on Monday the first Asian country to approve Pfizer-BioNTechs coronavirus vaccine and said it expects to start receiving shots by the end of the year.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, 68, said he would be among the early recipients in the city-state of 5.7 million people, which has one of the lowest fatality rates globally from the coronavirus. The government said it expects to have secured enough vaccines for everyone by the third quarter of next year.
