Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to the Biden administration, said the Omicron variant of the coronavirus appears to be able to “evade” the protection of antibodies induced by vaccines, in an interview with ABC on Dec. 12.
“It appears to be able to evade some of the immune protection of things like monoclonal antibodies, convalescent plasma, and the antibodies that are induced by vaccines,” Fauci told “This Week” anchor George Stephanopoulos.
