Will the Omicron Variant BA2.86 Evade Vaccines?
“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” - Benjamin Franklin
An essential part of strategy is considering contingencies if your main plan happens to fail. The recent research around BA2.86 strongly suggests that current vaccines are unlikely to be effective.

In summary, we found that BA.2.86 is antigenically distinct from XBB.1.5 and previous Omicron variants, and can evade XBB-induced and XBB-effective neutralising antibodies targeting various epitopes. Therefore, the efficacy of developing XBB-based vaccines against BA.2.86 should be closely monitored and carefully evaluated. Similar to early results from another saltation variant, Omicron BA.1, and BA.2.86 has a lower efficiency in infecting cell lines in vitro. However, BA.2.86 might obtain additional mutations during its transmission to enhance its infectivity, similar to the previous convergent evolution of S486P in XBB subvariants, which highlights the necessity of global cooperation to track the evolution of BA.2.86.
BA.2.86 variant is highly immune evasive and antigenically distinct from XBB.1.5 and previous Omicron variants

Can the variants evade the 'vaccines'?
They eat them like protein milkshakes, they just make them stronger but only against the unfortunately 'vaccinated'.
