Pondering the contentious COVID19 vaccine dose 2 "hold or give", optimal timing issue: if continuing to give first doses (when shipment is delayed, clearly) could save more lives, what kind

Not sure what’s happened at WHO but I strongly recommend you don’t let any A-level biology students see this lot of chuff. It’s factually wrong in numerous ways. The phrase

This is important, and is more evidence that #SARSCoV2 induces a perfectly good immune response. There is every reason to believe that protection will be as long lived compared to
