- Doctors in the U.K. are pushing back on the decision to delay administering the second dose of Pfizer’s vaccine later than the three week period studied in clinical trials.
- The U.K. on Wednesday said it would prioritize giving as many people their first dose of vaccine as quickly as possible, which could delay providing second dose beyond what’s recommended.
- U.K. health officials said the decision would “ensure that more at-risk people are able to get meaningful protection from a vaccine in the coming weeks and months.”
