Editor Says Ep 7: Why we should not refuse the Covid-19 vaccine

4:15 mins

Synopsis: Every Friday afternoon, senior editors from The Straits Times give their take on the top news of the week, why it matters and what’s next.

The Straits Times editor Warren Fernandez says that given the near miracle of the breakthrough Covid-19 vaccine, it would be unconscionable if people refuse it while expecting healthcare workers to put their lives on the line.

He adds that in this battle, "no one is safe until we are all safe".

Editor Says will resume in January as Warren Fernandez is now on his 2020 year-end leave.
