It has been decided that the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine will be given after 28 days rather than 21 days. The change comes into effect for anyone vaccinated from this coming Monday and will allow for more people to receive their first dose of the vaccine sooner.

Karina Butler, Chair of National Immunisation Advisory Committee joined Kieran to discuss what impact this will have on the vaccination process.
