Small fully vaxxed cohort followed across Omicron wave in Chicago. 1 in 5 reported a breakthrough infection. An additional 2 in 5 showed serological evidence of infection, in absence of symptoms. Both groups got big antibody boosts.

We find low levels of neutralizing antibodies following mild and moderate infections. These levels are way lower than what you would get from even a single dose of mRNA vax.

Do you know someone who is unvaccinated, had COVID, and thinks they are immune to re-infection and now don't need to get vaccinated? Our new report says they should think again:.

Provocative findings from a cool study led by the amazing @thatmonicakidd! Hopefully just the beginning of a productive collaboration.
@thatmonicakidd & @tmcdade35's new research into dynamic immune markers shows that strong immune responses are associated with higher birth weight in babies. (2/3).

New data on post-booster vaccine effectiveness against Omicron, consistent with our data showing a huge antibody response following boosters.
Our first initial estimates of vaccine effectiveness (VE) against symptomatic disease with the Omicron variant are now out. In short, VE remains high following a Pfizer booster after AZ or Pfizer, but is reduced after two doses. More below 👇. 1/11.
