"A vaccination strategy based on repeated booster doses of the original vaccine composition is unlikely to be appropriate or sustainable."
GENEVA (Reuters) - A World Health Organization technical body said on Tuesday that current COVID-19 vaccines may need to be reworked to ensure they are effective against Omicron and future variants of the coronavirus.
It said that an updated vaccine could be aimed specifically at the dominant variant, which is currently Omicron in many places, or be a "multivalent vaccine" designed to bust several variants at once.
A WHO official had previously said the issue of vaccine composition required "global coordination" and should not be left to manufacturers to decide alone.

Now, it is still hard to sell shares in such a company.

There are quite a number of companies. It is just that they are not yet popular.

A motherhood statement. Even our kids know how to make such statements, "not good enough, must have a good solution"

Now, it is buying empty and selling empty to Big Pharma in the hope of striking Toto. For small flies, to scale up is not easy. They have to look for guinea pig countries and also production plants.
