This weeknight news show offers a round-up of the day's top news as well as what's trending online and on social media.

Presented by multimedia journalists Dylan Ang and Cheow Sue-Ann, it airs live at 9pm on ST's Facebook, YouTube and Twitter channels.

Officials will review the vaccination registration process to see how to minimise any errors after a 16-year-old boy was wrongly given the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine. Only the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine has been authorised for use in Singapore for children aged 12 and above.

Also, a temporary ban on visitors to residential care homes serving the elderly will be in place from Saturday (June 5) to June 20, to reduce the risk of importing Covid-19 into such settings, as well as the chance of cross-transmission.
