This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (BA.1) has 25 unique mutations to the Spike glycoprotein, suggesting the efficacy of current vaccines against the new variant may be seriously degraded. A fully quantitative antibody binding study was performed for Spike Omicron (SO) and original Spike (S) proteins simultaneously on three cohorts of patients convalescent following RT-PCR-confirmed infection in early 2020, double-vaccinated at [≥]2 weeks, and vaccine boosters. The average (mode) of the booster cohort response distributions were 15.1 mg/L and 13.4 mg/L for S and SO, respectively, compared with the significantly lower double-vaccinated average, S=2.4 mg/L, SO=2.0 mg/L, and natural infections average S=2.0 mg/L, SO = 1.8 mg/L. A preliminary epitope degradation screen was performed for a panel of antibodies raised to the S1 and S2 regions of the original S protein. The panel showed significant degradation to antibody epitopes in the S1 region. Differential antibody binding of the vaccine response to S and SO suggests vaccine efficacy may be reduced by up to 50% against the Omicron variant.
