Sumario: | The SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant is recent member of variant of concerns that confer neutralizing antibodies and escape immune system due to harboring more than 40 mutations. Current evidences suggest two dosages SARS-CoV-2 vaccine dose not efficient protects against new variants of SARS-CoV-2; however, recent studies declare that the third booster vaccination can elicit higher antibodies concentration as well as cross-reaction between neutralizing antibodies and new SARS-CoV-2 variants. On the other hand, although a third booster vaccination seems to be benefit in some immunocompromised patients such as recipients of solid-organ transplants or hemodialysis patients, but in other immunosuppressed patients, for instance patients with B cell lymphoproliferative disease partially respond to SARS-CoV-2. Herein, we evaluate the effectiveness of the third booster vaccination against Omicron variant using comprehensive literature review. |
