Since, like yourself, I got COVID-19 after three doses of vaccine, I'm also encouraged to read about the synergistic immunity. (I just coined that phrase. I want credit!)

I do wonder if the study you cite said anything about duration of the immunity. For example, my current plan is to get a fourth shot (I'm over 50) before Worldcon in September. Will I need it by then?

Speaking of which, any chance you'll be in Chicago?

Dr. Skylar, I'm glad I found your substack!

I'm wondering if the results of the Omicron clinical trial are available online?

What were they looking for in the blood test?

Do you know if they were testing for troponin or d-dimer?

Consider using the term "volunteers" instead of "subjects" for clinical trial participants. (from a retired nurse practitioner and science writer with clinical research experience and strong opinions about word choices).
