Hi, No i was not diagnosed with covid twice. I recovered well from covid on Jul 15th. I had covid on Jul 5th and another cold on 25th Jul. For seasonal cold, doctor prescribed steroid and antibiotics for a week based on CBC and course completed on last sunday and I am feeling well now.  Just was worried about steroids intake for 7 days that it would compromise immune system. Thanks in advance
