As it is in medicine, so it is in law: the rules for when one can give legally valid consent to medical treatment differ for minors and adults. This paper analyses Singapore's first judgment concerning medical decision-making by and on behalf of mature minors: a Family Court decision on Gillick competence in the context of COVID-19 vaccination. This paper also discusses its implications for medical practice and critiques the age of majority in Singapore. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
