For those 'experts' questioning that a 2nd jab Pfizer cannot happen quickly this is another confirmation that DM's wife was probably correct that her second jab is in 3 weeks

/\ Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm sure you will, but wasn't the confusion over the the timescale between the 1st and 2nd doses of Astra Z not Pfizer.

I've spoken to Mrs D-M (an honorary title) again to clarify. She was given Sinovac this morning and has an appointment for 7 September when she will have an AZ jab. She's sure about this because she queried the different vaccines. I reassured her she was better off getting AZ as her 2nd shot.

So glad the honorary Mrs DM has cracked the time travel conundrum :laugh:

August Schmaugust... but at least Mr Warrior didn't make me look stupid by highlighting my little slip in red, instead of discreetly messaging me! :banghead: :guns: :laugh: :laugh:

Today I registered at Medpark Hospital for a Pfizer vaccination, There are some new timeslots for it. I don't like to go to Bangkok, but in Hua Hin I can get only Sinovac.

This is similar to me, first dose was Sinovac to be followed by AZ exactly 3 weeks later.

Is SV/AZ vaccination a cunning (non-evidence-based) ploy to speed up vaccinations in an attempt to open up the country? Only AZ/AZ requires a 2 - 3 month interval between shots.

Could be. What interval does Pfiz/Pfiz need? Thanks

One surmised as a fellow pedant you would have understood my need to highlight your slip knowing full well that my future posts will be closely scrutinised for even the slightest infringement. :thumb:

The interval for Pfizer should be only 3 weeks and 3 weeks after the second shot there is maximum protection.
