Replying to @EricTopol @michaelmina_lab
I hope people—especially older people—don't skip the second dose simply because there's a trial going on, but a quick trial would help answer the question. The public message should obviously stay the same.

That said, some people are going to miss that second dose (there were many in the trials) and we should make an effort to find them and maybe even swab them right before jabbing them, as Moderna did in the trials.
