OK I'll play your game . .

Let's turn it on it's head and ask "how many people - experts or not - would have thought A SINGLE DOSE would have been protection enough?"

Two jabs has always been the 'minimum' required for protection (say the experts) . . . and now they're saying the 'new' variants also need 2 jabs . . oh wowser, who'd a thunk it
