NPHET Offers No Advice On Extending Interval Periods For Pfizer Or Moderna Vaccines

There's been no advice on changing the interval period for the Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines, according to the Acting Chief Medical Officer.

The Government is believed to be considering extending the gap between the first and second doses from four weeks to between six and eight.
