    A very small study with 33 participants, nevertheless had some interesting results, supporting booster shots, which dramatically increased neutralizing antibodies, above what is achieved by natural immunity.

    Here is the study:

    Let's just hope that Omicron doesn't spread and/or doesn't beat the vaccines and/or natural immunity. But it is good to know that booster shots are being so protective, at least for now.
