tarsus Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Does anyone know that if here on Shetland they are giving different doses of the vaccine. If you get the Pfizer one to start with will you get the Astra one for the second shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, one of each wouldn't be so bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasmie Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I hear that so far they are giving out the same type for 1st and second, but that may change as some scientists believe that mixing them will either have no effect or indeed enhanced protection. Anyhow I’ll take anything I can get. It looks like they will introduce vaccine passports (as they currently do for Nasty stuff like yellow fever) as some countries and airlines may insist on that before travel.

tarsus Posted March 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I have just had my second vaccine injection which was the same as the first one and was told that whatever you got the first time you will get the same the second time.
