I don't understand the not favourable bit tbh, it stands to reason if you actively follow a policy of not performing the second vaccination until three months later, you will be behind in tables showing second dose vaccinations. If you don't do something how can you be high on a table that shows incidence of that thing being done?
One thing follows from the other, but it is a conscious strategy, if you choose not to jump over a wall for half an hour while other boys repeatedly spend their half hour doing so,. Charts of who jumped over the wall the most would have you bottom, that's not unfavourable but expected, you chose not to do so.
The one dose is a strategy which may or may not be the best alternative to tackle the disease by giving far more of the vulnerable some immunity rather than a far smaller percentage a greater immunity, but it is a conscious strategy.
This chart is really not showing anything as about whether or not it's the correct strategy, just the equivalent of the boy who chose not to jump over the wall didn't actually do so.
It's still remarkable in one respect, that despite pursuing such a conscious policy of a three month gap, in effect no second vaccinations after very early January, we've still vaccinated more than Germany who haven't followed such a policy.
