MONTREAL Quebec is shortening the minimum time between first and second doses of the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine to eight weeks, Health Minister Christian Dube announced Thursday. Second doses of the vaccine will start being administered at walk-in clinics on Saturday to people who received their first dose before April 3, Dube told reporters in Quebec City. People who received their first dose after April 3 will be able to receive a second dose in early June, he said. Quebec had set 16 weeks as the period between first and second doses for all COVID-19 vaccines authorized in Canada.

It added, however, that a clinical trial has shown the vaccine is most effective if first and second doses are spaced 12 weeks apart.
