Here’s what I wrote:

Dear Esther McVey
As someone who works on healthcare, I would like log my concerns about the governments plan to go “off label” with the currently approved Covid vaccines rollout.
Specifically the plan to delay administering second doses of the Pfizer vaccine by almost 3 months, instead of the heavily tested three weeks as deemed appropriate by the vaccine manufacturer).

My concerns are further compounded by the proposed “mix-and-match“ scheme with the Oxford vaccine to fill the gap of a supply shortage of the fire vaccine.

Simply put, this might all be perfectly fine (there are only so many different ways you can make an mRNA vaccine work); however none of the circumstances have been clinically tested, and had any Pharmaceutical company who changed a clinical trial midway through (irrespective of the planned phase) without can be relevant approvals from either the FDA/MHRA, sanctions/fines would’ve been applied.

Ultimately gnoring the difference of a three week to 3 month second dosage and the “mix-and-match”scheme, which ever way the government is to go with this, the “two million vaccinations a week” will take 60 weeks to implement in order to get 90%*of the population successfully vaccinated

(80-90% is the latest projections required for herd immunity owing to the existence of the new UK strain of covid, an increase of almost 50% for when Boris and Dominic Cummings said ‘will just take it on the chin’ and have everyone catch it)

Your sincerely
