San Francisco Chronicle—The emerging Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 features several mutations in its spike protein that in theory could make it resistant to current vaccines. But Associate Investigator Nadia Roan, PhD, explains that current vaccines will still protect against Omicron, as they elicit a variety of antibodies and immune T cells that target non-mutated areas of spike.

ABC News—A new variant of SARS-CoV-2, dubbed Omicron, is causing concern around the world. Gladstone President Deepak Srivastava explains that some of the variant’s 50 mutations may have arisen when an individual who was already immunocompromised became infected with the virus. Senior Investigator Nevan Krogan describes how his group is investigating whether the new mutations will change the ability of the virus to enter cells and cause disease.

UCSF News—Associate Investigator Nadia Roan, PhD, explains why the coronavirus delta variant is so infectious, how antibodies and T cells contribute to immunity, and why vaccinated people should still wear masks.
Gladstone Experts COVID-19 Virology Roan Lab
COVID vaccines protect from serious illness but may not prevent vaccinated people from transmitting the delta variant. Gladstone Associate Investigator Nadia Roan, PhD, says that wearing a mask adds to the protective effect of vaccines and helps reduce the circulation of the highly contagious delta variant.
