Israel still doesn’t get the difference between hospitalized WITH Covid and hospitalized BECAUSE of Covid. As Omicron spreads the number of hospitalized patients who test positive is bound to increase just as the number of accountants who are positive will increase. Omicron obviously doesn’t turn people into accountants. NY is finally releasing the data and it’s pretty eye opening.

Is there any article/research study that focuses on how much you are less protected if you have the 2 shots but it has been more than 6 months from last shot and one did not take the booster?

Comparing what?

Infection? That’s hard to study and you won’t see such significant differences with Omicron.

Hospitalization/severity for boosted/non-booster, both cohorts after six months? I guess it’s possible to study this, but you’d get the most relevant result from data that will only include Omicron-prevalent data, and it’s too soon to get that for these data points.

Test for antibodies.  If your levels are low, you're less protected than if they're high.

Not necessarily the same for Omicron, but a CDC report from last week suggesting that previous COVID-19 infection was more effective against severe outcomes of Delta infection compared to vaccination.

Well, it took 23 months, but it seems like the COVIDS got me again. :(
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Wow! Refuah Sheleima!

Should have moved to Lakewood for the few weeks to avoid the wave hitting CLE that already passed Lakewood.  :P

I'm sure I don't have to tell you to get your whole family tested. Maybe you will be able to still go to Israel under the current rules.

Which vaccine did you get? How many doses? When last did you test your antibodies?
