Singapore has said workers in the maritime sector will be among those prioritised to receive Covid-19 vaccinations.
The city state has already begun inoculating staff working in the healthcare sector.
It is unclear at this stage exactly who within the maritime sector will be prioritised, whether it will be migrant workers employed in Singapore’s shipyards or service providers, such as surveyors, ship pilots or vessel operators, such as crews on tugs and bunker tankers.
