And of course, being infected by Omicron provides very little protection against non-Omicron variants. So if the next variant is like every prior one that didn't descend from the current dominant one (they have to be antigenically different enough to really outcompete, so that's a likely possibility), then anyone who only has immunity to Omicron is at a significant disadvantage to anyone who was vaccinated (either before or after an Omicron infection) and who has have much broader immunity.

Is the poor immunity of Omicron against older variants against infection or severe disease or both?
