I saw an expert last week saying that the greater delay between the two treatments could make it more effective, because the body has more time to assimilate the first dose and this can be beneficial to the effect of the second. I've got no idea if that's true, but it illustrates the ever changing and sometimes competing scientific advice on which the Government has to make judgement calls.
