"A wider gap between the first two doses of the mRNA Covid-19 vaccines could improve the shots' effectiveness and help reduce the risk of a rare type of heart inflammation called myocarditis,..."
Obviously more and more is learned about a vaccine (or any medical treatment) the longer it has been used, but once again, those who didn't yet get it are probably glad they didn't.
other countries knew this last year and a lot of them followed that data. The US ignored this data like they have with a lot of covid data.
i got the first 2 shots and spaced them out about 2 months apart despite them telling me to do them 3-4 weeks apart back in the spring/summer.

The approach could also help convince people who have not yet been vaccinated out of concern about myocarditis to get their vaccines.
Now the CDC is apparently admitting or at least acknowledging that there may actually be a risk of myocarditis. Something that just a few short months ago was seen by the Covidans as some "Right-Wing Anti-Vax conspiracy theory". Of course, to get people to "trust" the CDC again they just say to extend the length of time between the shots ad magically the risk goes away. It will be interesting to see where this "guidance" goes.

Dr. Helen Keipp Talbot, a committee member and a professor of medicine at Vanderbilt University, called the strategy a "win-win," adding the practice appears to be safe and effective.

Well just a little over 1 year is not really that long at all. More like 5-10 years worth of data is what you want.
You have pregnant women that got 2-3 shots.
The Moderna/Pfizer IV drop is the way to go, and you can virtue signal intensely while you push it around in front of your friends and family... But I don't think any version will generate as much excitement and fanfare among those true blue democrats as the suppository form
I’m surprised anyone is still listening to the CDC.
