"They Recovered From The Coronavirus. Were They Infected Again?" - Apoorva Mandavilli
Can people who recover from a bout with the new coronavirus become infected again — and again? “I’m not saying that reinfection can’t occur, will never occur, but in that short time it’s unlikely,” said Florian Krammer, PhD, professor of microbiology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. He added, “PCR tests may detect remnants of the measles virus months after people who had the disease stop shedding infectious virus.”
