SINGAPORE - Experts are divided on the effects for the elderly as the proportion of vaccinated younger people overtakes that of seniors. As at last Tuesday, those aged 40 to 59 made up the highest proportion - 86 per cent - of people who have had at least the first dose of the vaccine or booked an appointment to get it. This was followed by those aged 60 to 69, 12 to 29, 30 to 39, and finally those 70 and up. Professor Paul Tambyah, senior consultant at the National University Hospital s Division of Infectious Diseases, said the higher rates among the young could help make up for the shortfall in vaccination of seniors.
