Maybe someone here more experienced with viruses and vaccines can tell me what the consequences of this might be.
You and I probably know as much as the experts do on this.
These vaccines haven't been around long enough to know for sure and the manufacturers didn't test single-dosing.
We can speculate as to what the effect *might* be...
Might be that immunity is of lesser duration.
Might be that the immune response to the virus is less strong.
Might still make a very big dent in infections. Seems that one dose of a mRNA vaccine might be roughly on par with one dose of J&J, at least in the short-term.
