Real world data just published in the UK says the vaccine effectiveness against symptomatic infection against Omicron is ZERO for AZ and only 30% for Pfizer, booster for Pfizer brings it back up to around 75% in the first month. It was too early to predict the effectiveness on serious illness or death but they hope that will remain intact. I guess we will be expecting lots more arrivals into Thailand with Omicron if those figures hold true. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
