Professor at the Jamalia Center for Microbiology, Anatoly Alstein, warned of the dangers of re-infection with Omicron.

In an interview with Russian radio “Sputnik”, he said that the “Omicron” mutant is able to “penetrate” the immunity of those who had previously been infected with the “Wuhan” or “Delta” strains. This was demonstrated by the outbreak of a new wave of CoViD-19 infections in Russia during the winter, while the world expressed its conviction that the “Omicron” mutant infects those who have already recovered from “Covid-19” or have been vaccinated for a long time.
The professor also did not rule out the possibility of repeated infection with the same type of “Corona” virus, including the “Omicron” mutant.
And he recalled that “Omicron” often multiplies in the upper respiratory tract and does not descend to the bottom. “Therefore, the infection enters the human body in smaller doses, compared to previous strains, and therefore the ‘Omicron’ spreads very quickly,” he said.
The Russian scientist said that after recovery from the disease caused by the “Omicron” mutant, it will be possible to re-infection with the same type of coronavirus.
“Of course, it will be less common, compared to those who have been infected with another strain of the virus, but we can see such cases,” he explained.
