Don't worry BA.2 is right around the corner and it's not clear if the BA.1 variant (Omicron) gives you immunity to BA.2. Lots of people infected with Delta, also caught Omicron.
So yeah, you're immune but possibly not for the next variant, and that variant may be more severe.

- r00fus 5y agoI mean it is a global pandemic with millions of dead and new variants that may pose new challenges. Caution? What a surprising concept!
- rgrieselhuber 5y agoDepends on your definition of caution.

The good news is, you can always lock yourself down if it's a concern to you. There's not really any need to go out of the house anymore if you want to set things up that way.
