The announcement, which has not yet been peer reviewed, was called reassuring by experts, and came as the first independent data from labs around the world emerged, indicating the new mutations are better at evading immunity from infections and vaccines than those before them "We still need to be very measured and take a wait and see approach, but I think what we have is at least encouraging," virologist Angela Rasmussen of Canada's Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization told AFP Blood samples from around 20 people who had received two doses of the current vaccine showed on average a 25-fold reduction in neutralizing antibodies compared to the early strain of the virus, the companies said But they added that another part of the immune response from T cells were probably still effective against the new variant, meaning that people with two doses "may still be protected against severe forms of the disease" 14 The vaccine-makers are developing an Omicron-specific version of the jab, which they hope will be ready by March, but say the decision whether to mass produce it would depend on the variant's spread In Europe, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced she would extend Christmas school holidays, curtail nightlife and urge citizens to work from home as the country fights off a sharp rise in infections "The plan is not to have a long closure," she said, while acknowledging a return to home offices would also be unwelcome for many Her British counterpart Boris Johnson likewise brought back guidance to work from home and vaccine passports for venues such as nightclubs and stadiums The new measures apply to England, and were already in place in Scotland and Wales II Answers A encourage news from the lab test, three doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine appear effective against the Omicron variant, even as Denmark and Britain announced new restrictions In preliminary results, the Covid-19 shots companies said a booster-generated potent antibodies against Omicron as before with the initial strain and the Omicron variant probably more than doses to be neutralized Virologists need to very measured, but they also said a part of the immune response -
