re Omicron
"[...] the doctors hope more people who are vaccinated will help prevent against any fatal cases. "I still don't think you'll see severe disease in vaccinated people because it's not going to be a naïve immune response," said Dr. Durrani."
The latest 'omicron' variant seems to mutate 50 times more often than the former delta variant, however patients are said to just become tired, without losing smell or taste, and no real serious symptoms as far as i read. So the initial 'omicron' symptomatic impact is relatively mild, and a booster shot will improve the body's response also against the spin-off variant.
