Moderna boss warns about vaccine efficacy against omicron

From the BBC World Service: The Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel expects the number of mutations in the latest COVID-19 variant mean new vaccines will be required next year, sending ripples of nervousness through financial markets. But what do we actually know about the impact of omicron? And, a new report suggests some high food prices are unlikely to fall next year.

While the Moderna boss casts doubt on the efficacy of vaccines against Omicron, it will take weeks to get more detailed clinical data.
