It was found that BA.2.75.2 is significantly more resistant than other Omicron strains, both in people who have received 3 Coronavac injections, as well as people who have been vaccinated with various strains.
In addition, when looking at the cell’s binding capacity to ACE2 receptors, BA.2.75.2, along with other Omicron subspecies detected today, were more binding to the ACE2 receptor than the D614G strain ( that used to cause a second wave of outbreaks around the world from late 2020 to early 2021).
