Yeah, there are trade-offs there. The four month interval that Ontario was using was probably too long, but 6-8 weeks is slightly better than 3 weeks. At the individual level it is probably hard to tell, but more so at the population level. And one has got to balance that against the risk of actually getting COVID while not fully vaccinated. For me, waiting longer seems to be a better trade-off than getting fully-vaccinated sooner, but there is no community transmission in this part of NZ.
