Omicron 3 Times More Likely to Reinfect Than Delta or Beta Covid Variants, Shows S African Study

“Recent reinfections have occurred in individuals whose primary infections occurred across all three waves, with the most having their primary infection in the Delta wave," tweeted Juliet Pulliam, director of the South African DSI-NRF Centre of Excellence in Epidemiological Modelling and Analysis.

Pulliam cautioned that the authors did not have information about the individuals’ vaccination status and therefore could not assess to what extent Omicron evades vaccine-induced immunity. The researchers plan to study this next.

“Data are also urgently needed on disease severity associated with Omicron infection, including in individuals with a history of prior infection," she said.

Michael Head, a scientist at the University of Southampton, praised the research as “high quality."

“This analysis does look very concerning, with immunity from previous infections being relatively easily bypassed. Might this all still be a ‘false alarm’? That is looking less and less likely," he said in a statement.

[Dizzy28]

Any predictions what Rowley coming to tell us 1pm or we getting another history lesson?

Probably to call someone a chimp

[j.o.e]

usa accepts either
rule is from the 6th
ppl traveling on a monday will need to get tested on a sunday

i now see usa changed inbound travel rule to covid test 24hrs instead of 3days

Is it still Rapid Anitgen or is it now PCR?

Glad antigen is still an option. My eye does water just watching a PCR test

I would like another history lesson.

I want to know where it all started.

Which mc Trini it was that had this ignorant and irresponsible trait that is embedded in the DNA of Trinis.

Who threw the first piece of trash on the ground and thought it was ok to just leave it there and continue to litter?

Which Trini was it that urinated in public areas and spat on the ground for others to follow?

Which Trini was it that gave us the bad name we have worldwide?

I need to know these things.

As a result, most antigen tests have a sensitivity of anywhere between 50% and 90%—in other words, one in two infected people might incorrectly be told they don't have the virus.

Those infected ppl joining a flight with others, make It make sense. PCR test is the more accurate option, if you wanna fly spend your money

May be more of a chump given recent language being used.

You keep saying "make it make sense" but you are against the vaccine.
Vaccines work when everyone takes it to stop the spread.

[aaron17]

"Need for vaccine aspiration confirmed, why is this not being done"

[aaron17]

Which place you know does aspirate?
When you get blood in the syringe via aspiration..u need to use a new needle?

To defend himself against the allegations made against him.
Elections is Monday and he ain't looking to good.

Jason,

The UNC is to be blamed for many things.

PNM too but this is a PNM conference to it is expected.

But i don’t understand Trinis……they KNOW the PM coming with the same crap and yet they fall for it and beat up every single time lol.

Trinis too petty.

[aaron17]

I heard he was talking about the vax protests that were against mandatory vax. He said something about 'what mandatory means?' Also he said they were protesting that trinidad dont have.( which is mandatory vax). .

Nice ..he could bring it after :rolleye:

[Les Bain]

I just remembered this press conference, tuned in late and it looks like I miss nothing. Cliff's notes?

[triniterribletim]

Our response cannot be to lock down, basically "Who dead dead!" Take the vaxx etcetera etcetera.

[aaron17]

No beaches because of omicron.

[MaxPower]

No beaches because of littering.

Fixed

This is true! I had a few pcr tests done in the US and it was so easy compared to getting it done in Trinidad. Even the antigen test I got done in Trinidad, the chemical felt like it burn inside my nose and had me sniffling for a day.

[st7]
