NIH Dir. Collins: COVID vaccines will 'most likely' protect against omicron variant, but too soon to tell
Fox News
National Institute of Health Director Francis Collins said Sunday that current coronavirus vaccines will "most likely" be effective against the omicron variant, but it is too soon to tell for sure.
"We do know that this is a variant that has a lot of mutations – like 50 of them, and more than 30 of those in the spike protein, which is the part off the virus that attaches to your human cells if you get infected," Collins said. "That is a new record in terms of the number of mutations. It does make you worry, therefore, that it's a sufficiently different virus, that it might not respond as well to protection from the vaccines. But we don't know that."
