According to DM (lefties do not read!) the Omicron variant is milder than other variants.

That's a good idea! Maybe we could spread mild variants to provide immunity to more serious Covid versions without any vaccinations!

Yes, it's more complicated than just antibodies but the fact is that people are catching it twice, and catching it after being double jabbed - but in general doing better than they would be if they didn't have some immunity.
Even with omicron the numbers out of South Africa are still less than 3% of reinfections (if I recall the number correctly but it's quite low). Omicron seems to be much more transmissible but it only appears to be evading natural immunity when you compare it to other strains.. when you look at the numbers of reinfections its still very low percentage of total infections.Comment
