COVID-19 Serology

COVID-19 Serology

COVID-19 serology (blood) testing may be used in the determination of

  • immune response to vaccination,
  • evidence of past infection,
  • for pre-departure travel where required by the destination country or carrying airline, and
  • epidemiological assessment such as in persons undergoing rostered routine testing (RRT).

There is currently no role for COVID-19 serology (IgG/IgM) tests in the clinical diagnosis of recent-onset COVID-19 infections.  A PCR swab test is used in the diagnosis active COVID-19 infections.  In the event of a positive serology test result, depending on his past vaccination, infection history or current symptoms, the person may also require a further COVID-19 PCR test to determine if there is active COVID-19 infection.

Patients are advised to consult with our physicians regarding the need for this test.

  • Test for immunity after Pfizer / Moderna or other COVID-19 vaccine (Serology for Neutralising Antibodies to the Spike protein – ACOV2S) – $48.00 Nett
  • Test for past infection (Serology COV IgG – COV G) – $35.00 Nett
  • For pre-travel (COVID Serology IgM – COV M) – $38.00 Nett

For persons with overseas COVID-19 vaccination, we can update this information into the National Immunisation Records if it meets the following criteria:

  1. The individuals are Singapore Citizens, Permanent Residents or Long-Term Pass (e.g. Long-Term Visitor Pass, Work Permit, Employment Pass, S Pass, Dependent Pass) Holders (LTPH);
  2. Produce an overseas COVID-19 vaccination document, – the vaccine used should be authorised by the Heath Sciences Authority under the Pandemic Special Access Route (PSAR) or listed on the World Health Organization’s Emergency Use Listing (WHO EUL);
  3. The relevant serology test result is positive.

Upon successful ingestion of the individuals’ overseas COVID-19 vaccination data into NIR, the individuals would be able to view their vaccination records in HealthHub (mid July 2021 onwards), and subsequently on TraceTogether once the system enhancement is ready (late August 2021 onwards).

Please call us at 6337 8933 for an appointment to have the test done.

Sinopharm COVID-19 Vaccine

Sinopharm COVID-19 Vaccine

Booster Sinopharm vaccine recommended schedule:

  • 90 days after a primary course of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (3 dose Sinovac / Sinopharm)
  • 120 days after primary course of mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine (Moderna / Phizer)
  • (or at least 28 days after recovery from COVID-19 infection)

Book an appointment to receive Sinopharm COVID-19 Vaccine?

  • Please use your own name, email, and contact number for booking of appointment.
  • Upon confirmation of vaccination appointment, you will receive an email notification.
  • If you do not receive the email notification, please email our enquiry line at [email protected]

Terms and Conditions

  1. Booking of appointments can ONLY be done in the link above.
  2. Eligible criteria for Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine. 
    • Above 18 years old
    • Do not have history of anaphylaxis (serious life-threatening allergic reaction) to any components of the vaccine
    • If you are pregnant, please consult your obstetrician to assess your suitability for the vaccine.  Pregnant women with COVID-19 are at higher risk of developing severe disease than non-pregnant women of reproductive age. COVID-19 in pregnancy has also been associated with an increased risk of preterm birth and of neonates requiring intensive care.
    • Lactating women are eligible to be administered with the Sinopharm vaccine, and able to continue breastfeeding post-vaccination.
    • Those who have had COVID-19 in the past are eligible for booster vaccination 28 days after COVID-19 infection.
    • Anyone with an acute febrile illness (body temperature over 38.5 ºC) should postpone vaccination until they are afebrile.

    Please consult our doctors if you are unsure about getting the vaccine. You may also refer to this MOH link for more information:

  3. For Primary Series Vaccination – Ministry of Health Singapore recommends that persons who receive Sinopharm are advised to receive a three doses vaccine as primary series.  WHO recommends an interval of 3–4 weeks for the 2nd dose. The third dose should be taken 90 days after the second dose.
  4. Persons who receive Sinopharm will only be considered fully vaccinated after completing the 3-dose primary series.

MOH maintains recommendations

  • Booster vaccine is recommended to be administered 3 months after a primary course of inactivated vaccine or after recovery from COVID-19 infection.

    Do you need a booster vaccine?

    There has been evidence that antibody levels from COVID-19 vaccines decline with time after the primary series.  Booster vaccine increases this antibody response substantially.

    How does Sinopharm vaccine work?

    Sinopharm vaccine exposed the body to inactivated COVID-19 virus, to induce the immune system will make antibodies against the coronavirus, attaching to viral proteins. The delivery virus has been attenuated so you won’t develop the common cold when administered with this vaccine.  Your body immune system can then respond to an infection of live coronaviruses by producing antibodies to block the virus.

    Why is it important to get the COVID-19 vaccine?

    The Singapore government has advised that COVID-19 vaccination will help to protect us and our loved ones against COVID-19. Vaccination will not only reduce the number of people susceptible to the coronavirus, but also reduce the chances of transmission in the community.  A high local vaccination coverage is key to protect ourselves from COVID-19, and we encourage all medically eligible persons to be vaccinated.

    How effective is the Sinopharm vaccine?

    The Sinopharm vaccine’s efficacy rate is currently at 79% in preventing symptomatic infection in the multi-country Phase 3 trial. This can be compared to 51% for the Sinovac vaccine and 95% for the Pfizer-BioNTech/Cominarty vaccine.  More studies are required to determine COVID-19 vaccine efficacy against COVID-19 variants.

    HSA safety update #6 (30 Dec 20 – 30 Sep 21) – Incidence of Adverse Effects (AE)
    • Sinopharm 0.02% AE (none serious)
    • Sinovac 0.06% AE (0.005% serious)
    • mRNA 0.14% AE (0.006% serious), 81 local cases of myocarditis, pericarditis, 8.4 per 100,000 cerebral venous thrombosis.
