The coronavirus variant Omicron may partially evade protection from two doses of vaccine produced by Pfizer Inc. and partner BioNTech, Alex Seagal, head of research at a South African laboratory, told Reuters on Tuesday.
However, the study, based on preliminary data not yet reviewed, showed that recipients of two doses of vaccine who had a previous infection were mostly able to neutralize the variant, suggesting that booster doses may to help prevent infection. On Twitter, Seagal said there was a "very large drop" in the neutralization of Omicron compared to earlier versions.
