The research head of a laboratory at the Africa Health Research Institute in South Africa said on Tuesday that the Omicron variant of the coronaviruses can partially evade the protection of two doses of Pfizer Inc and partner BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine. The study showed that the blood from people who had received two doses of the vaccine and had a prior infection was mostly able to destroy the variant, suggesting that booster doses of the vaccine could help to fend off infections. Alex Sigal, a professor at the Africa Health Research Institute, said there was a drop in neutralization of the Omicron variant.
