One of the natural characteristics of viruses is its ability to mutate and update itself.
Provide me documents containing data, studies and randomized clinical trials (RCTs) proving that viruses can never escape vaccines.

Dear Ryan Cuartero,
Greetings!
Thank you for your request dated Sep 30, 2023 12:10:40 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
Your Request
You asked for Natural characteristics of viruses.
Response to Request
Your FOI request is approved.
After the evolution of the new SARS-CoV-2 variants, concerns regarding the vaccine escape and antibody escape event have been raised. It has been noted that the efficiency of vaccines is reducing in most cases due to the mutations of the variants. Vaccine escape is an interesting phenomenon, and therefore, it is urgently necessary to understand vaccine efficiency due to the emerging variants and their mutations. Furthermore, there is no evidence that these partial escapes resulted from vaccine-induced antibody pressure
Thank you
