COVID-19 booster, specifically a third vaccine dose, may lower protection against getting infected with the omicron variant again for some people — and there’s a reason why, new findings suggest.
In contrast, two vaccine doses, followed by an initial omicron infection, may protect more against a second omicron infection than an extra jab, according to a preprint study published Nov. 1 to medRxiv, a server run by Yale, BMJ and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. This is due to a specific reaction within the immune system, researchers concluded.
Here’s what the findings mean.
“If you got infected with Omicron at any time, a third vaccine dose actually doubles your risk of reinfection compared to 2 doses only,” Dr. Daniele Focosi, who specializes in hematology and works at Pisa University Hospital in Italy, wrote on Twitter in response to the findings. “Amazing immune imprinting at work.”
The study points to immune imprinting as the reason why “three-dose vaccination was associated with reduced protection compared to that of two-dose vaccination.”
But what exactly is immune imprinting?
Fortune explains it as “a phenomenon in which an initial exposure to a virus — say, the original strain of COVID, by infection or vaccination — limits a person’s future immune response against new variants.”
In a letter published Nov. 3 to the New England Journal of Medicine, authors of the Qatar study detailed how they sought to investigate the “phenomenon” by examining tens of thousands of people in the country who had been reinfected with an omicron subvariant.
The study found that when looking at participants who had received three vaccine doses and had also been previously infected with an omicron subvariant, they experienced more reinfections than participants who had only gotten two doses.

All these boosters are and were a bad thing. Common Sense again trumps the 'experts."
Basic science taught this concept years ago. Lost knowledge and willful ignorance kills. I learned years ago/decades ago that leaky vaccines were one of the most dangerous things to use on a population.
And, the “authorities” know this. This damage to the people is intentional.
Just what many of us said and suspected.

Just what our democidal government wants. Every day HHS sponsors ads to get your booster today so you can enjoy the holidays. People have to ask themselves why the government keeps pushing this crap on humanity, just like a heroin drug pusher would do. There evil afoot and I can’t believe there are people who still fall for it. Is mass formation psychosis this powerful?
Yes it is when one lives in an echo chamber of controlled information, controlled social media, controlled schools, controlled education. This why I no longer believe elections can save us. It is going to take something very, very awful to right this ship called the United States. One way or another she has to be brought to her knees.
Mass formation psychosis is this powerful specifically because of the lack of CRITICAL THINKING ABILITIES. Many people today lack this skill.
Since all information is literally available at one’s fingertips, there is no need to THINK or REASON out a solution or conclusion. Thank a teacher if you CAN’T THINK!
who will hold them to account?
Its not a bug, its a feature.
The Jabs make antibodies to the spike protein, not the Virus itself.
The Spike Protein changes a little and the Jabs don’t keep you from getting the virus.
If the MSM wasn’t OWNED by big pharma and Trump was still President, 60 Minutes would be describing why the vaxxed are still getting sick, in excrucuiating detail and how Warp Speed was a “abject failure”.
Sometime after getting Crushed in the midterms, Dems will start abandoning the Vax (They are still running add on Promoting Mask Mandates, so they have a LONG ways to go, but a lightbulb will go off, sometime)
And yet healthcare professionals are still pressuring patients to get boosted...
It has long been my contention here that the demoncrap deep state/media intend to use Operation Warpspeed as a weapon against Trump in 2024.
You are seeing the groundwork being laid and the coordination being sorted out amongst the various outlets.
And they are the one’s who should actually know better!!
This is what I find the most frustrating aspect.
Wholly accurate and sad as well.
Many people are on injections 4-5
Imagine what’s happening to their immune system
Governments and the press did a good job of scaring the hell out of everyone. It wasn't all that long ago that many people polled vastly overestimated the chance of hospitalization and death from C19.
