Abstract
Here the authors show that Omicron neutralizing antibody titers decline over time in mice immunized with a wild-type (WT) lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-mRNA vaccine and are robustly increased by WT or Omicron LNP-mRNA and that Omicron boosters elicit higher BA.1-neutralizing titer than WT boosters.
