So that’s what we’ve done @TexasChildrens developed a recomb protein covid vaccine made by yeast fermentation similar to what’s given now to kids for their hepatitis b vaccine. In India it’s known as Corbevax scheduled for EUA in India. But right now we don’t have partners for US https://t.co/HK8FZ2fAG6

3/5 This might give us some indication about whether we need to develop a new booster, or hopefully the existing vaccines are adequate. Also those getting 3 mRNA or 2 JnJ may have higher neutralizing antibodies against omicron than those with only 1 or 2 mRNA

5/5 Finally I was hard on the POTUS and G7 leaders in regards to travel restrictions. It's likely the omicron is already here. Rather than isolate Africa, we need to vaccinate Africa this is the only way to halt the pandemic.
