It's better to take 2nd dose of vaccine between 6 to 8 weeks gap . Later is better.

Yes you can take vaccination a few days early....
But taking it a bit longer will help in immunity for a longer period of time. As seen in patients.

Yes the second shot of the vaccine can be taken a bit earlier...but as studies suggest, the efficacy of the vaccine is amplified if taken between 6-8 weeks from the first dose.
