Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic, which affected around 45 million confirmed cases of COVID-19, including more than 6 deaths. However, on November 24, 2021, the World Health Organization announced a new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 variant designated as B.1.1.529, concern (VOC), and has been named "Omicron." Available preliminary evidence suggests that, compared with previous VOCs, it increased risk infectivity. Studies have shown that protection from various vaccines effectiveness against hospitalization death COVID-19 decreasing slowly after two-dose schedule vaccines. In response to experiencing resurgence cases, importance vaccine booster dose durability effect third Omicron controversial yet. To address this, we conducted systematic literature survey or variant.

The Omicron variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) exhibits reduced susceptibility to vaccine-induced neutralizing antibodies, requiring a boost generate protective immunity. We assess the magnitude and short-term durability antibodies after homologous heterologous boosting with mRNA Ad26.COV2.S vaccines. All prime-boost combinations substantially increase neutralization titers Omicron, although boosted decline rapidly within months from peak response compared against prototypic D614G variant. Boosted are higher for vaccine boosting, boosting. Homologous generates nearly equivalent activity sublineages BA.1, BA.2, BA.3 but modestly BA.2.12.1 BA.4/BA.5 BA.1. These results have implications requirements protect future variants SARS-CoV-2. This trial was conducted under ClincalTrials.gov: NCT04889209.
