Reinfection Possibilities

2021-05-10 02:55:10
Dear Doctors, I was tested positive for covid on 12th April and was tested negative after 21 days. My doubt is, how soon can a person get reinfected with covid after testing negative ? I herad that the antibodies generated at the first time will fight back effectively if we get infected for the second time. Kindly clarify.

It is possible to be reinfected, usually the immunity developed through the first infection helps the body. Monitor your symptoms and oxygen level in case you have doubt of reinfection. Consult a doctor if you find anything unusual in your day to day condition. Also dont overthink it, stay happy, eat healthy, take steam thrice a day and stay hydrated.
