Recent Examples on the Web But, if they're given in areas with poor hygiene, improper sanitation, and low vaccination rates, the vaccine virus can spread, mutate, and regain the ability to cause disease and paralysis. 
Beth Mole, Ars Technica, 12 Aug. 2022 Despite these developments an Omicron specific booster is yet to be approved anywhere and there are concerns that vaccine makers may always be left playing catch-up against the coronavirus which continues to spread and potentially mutate further. Siladitya Ray, Forbes, 8 Aug. 2022 Scientists argue that, with this research, they can be prepared to handle it if one day the virus were to mutate naturally. Benjamin Hall, Fox News, 4 Feb. 2022 The only way for these viral proteins to escape Avs detection would be to mutate into an unrecognizable shape. Annie Melchor, Quanta Magazine, 29 Aug. 2022 The comparison with flu vaccines isn’t sound, Dr. Offit said, because flu viruses mutate so rapidly that shots from one year don’t offer protection for the next, while currently available Covid-19 shots continue to keep people out of the hospital.
