The Omicron BA.1 variant is extremely good at escaping the immune system, and if you are unvaxed and catch it the antibodies it generates might not protect you against other variants, according to new data. The researchers looked at the antibodies generated after Omicron infection in vaccinated and unvaccinated people, and those with and without previous infection. They found that unvaccinated people who are infected with the omicron BA.1 variant might not be sufficiently protected against infection with another variant and for full protection, vaccination is warranted.
