TAMPA, Fla. — “There does seem to be a lot of immune evasion that’s associated with these new variants that are coming up,” said Dr. Thomas Unnasch, Distinguished Professor for USF Health.
Researchers are seeing more vaccinated people getting COVID-19. It began with the huge omicron spike at the beginning of the year.
“We started to see a lot more cases of people getting sick who were actually vaccinated,” said Dr. Jill Roberts, Association Professor for the USF College of Public Health.
With even more contagious omicron subvariants now emerging, preliminary data show the vaccines might not be as protective as they once were. That’s a big concern because The White House predicts we’ll see another wave of cases later this year.
