Natural immunity should extend to omicron. The S protein changed but not the N protein. Natural immunity leads to antibodies to the N protein. I measured it in my family using Abnova antibody test kits. Now the flip of this is that vaccination seems to prevent N antibodies from being generated. This was clear from the English blood bank testing. The S and N antibodies prevalence rose in lock step until vaccination started, then S antibodies rose to practically 100% while N antibodies languished at 20%. Now that omicron has come around with a hugely modified S protein, the vaccinated have little to no protection.
