Clipped wings

    Hi Wigwam,

    I am no anti-Vaxer, having had armfuls including yellow fever  over 35 years of travel to India, Africa etc. But am I alone in being a little sceptical regarding the euphoric celebrations of quantity vs quality.  The inventors and producers of the mRNA vaccine stipulate 2 doses 3 weeks apart. There is NO DATA for extending this to 12 weeks. April fools day will be telling as the millions who have had first dose will start to need the second. Will that take all capacity up to July?
    then there is the Astra/Oxford. During trials it achieved @60% efficacy and then “accidentally” 90% by one 1/2 dose followed by  full one. So what is being given? A full dose or a half and what are the consequences of a 12 week delay? No Data. Policy dominating science. Fingers crossed for the outcome.
