As the member would know, whether on a first dose or the completion of two doses, one of the great attractions of the AstraZeneca vaccine is the medical evidence that a significant level of protection against serious disease is afforded by that first dose. So to suggest that someone who has only received a first dose is not afforded any protection from that vaccine would be misleading. That would be misleading, and I think the member is being misleading by putting it in that way. But I will ask the minister for health to add further.
