Researchers from South Africa found that people who are infected with Omicron, especially those who are vaccinated, gain stronger immunity against Delta.
Omicron coronavirus infections may provide individuals with increased protection against the Delta variant and pave the way for Delta to eventually become displaced, according to a new study published in South Africa.and found that people who are infected with Omicron, especially those who are vaccinated, gain stronger immunity against Delta.
According to the paper, vaccinated participants"were able to mount a better neutralizing response against Delta" while those who were unvaccinated had"more variable" responses. "The increase in Delta variant neutralization in individuals infected with Omicron may result in decreased ability of Delta to re-infect those individuals," wrote Alex Sigal, lead author of the study and a professor at the Africa Health Research Institute. Sigal then added that displacing Delta would depend on whether or not Omicron is a less pathogenic variant.
