Booster dose got even better:

After Britain, now India has also prepared an updated version of the Corona vaccine. It is composed entirely of Omicron and its subforms, a single dose of which can produce sufficient antibodies. This will be for those taking both doses of Covishield or Covaxin. A precautionary dose of this updated vaccine can be taken four months after the completion of the two-dose vaccination.

Shortly before, the American company Moderna launched the first Omicron-based vaccine with mRNA technology in the UK. A senior official of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) said that a few weeks ago, Genova Biopharmaceuticals Company prepared an updated vaccine for Omicron and its subtype BA.1 through mRNA technology.
