Variants in Clinvar which are not linked to dbSNP

I have recently found some variants which appear in Clinvar searching by coordinate but not by their RS ID.

ID: rs111254723

Clinvar: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/2445388/

dbSNP: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/rs111254723#clinical_significance

This is an example of one of them. The same variant appears in dbSNP searching by its RS identifier, but its clinical significance field is empty while it does appear in Clinvar.

I know that both databases are different, therefore they may not be perfectly related. But I would like to know if this is a matter of time or an issue.

Thanks in advance.
