South African virologists have published a new study on the effectiveness of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine against Omigran. Benny Moore, a professor at the University of Johannesburg, found in the study that the vaccine could not produce antibodies against omigran. The vaccine offers little protection from Omicron. This protection is also available due to the immune cells already in the body.

Professor Moore said he had tested the effect of omigran on the blood samples of individuals who had been vaccinated by Pfizer, Biotech and Johnson & Johnson. Laboratory test results found that Johnson & Johnson vaccine levels had lower antibody levels than others.
