Do we need booster shots to fight Omicron? Experts divided
COVID-19, some say that booster shots are looking like an increasingly good idea to help fight the pandemic.“If there was no Omicron in the picture, I think that two doses would have been sufficient for us,” said Sabina Vohra-Miller, founder of Unambiguous Science, a health information organization, although health authorities “strongly” recommend Canadians 50 and older receive the booster to protect against Delta.“Now that Omicron is in the picture, making sure that Canadians are protected against this variant is going to be important.”The tipping point is a set of new studies that seem to show that the Omicron variant is better able to evade the protection provided by two doses than previous COVID-19 variants.
