People who have previously been infected with COVID-19 are still twice as likely to get the virus again versus people who have gotten the vaccine after recovering.
Well, it is time to connect the dots where we take a deeper dive into today’s headlines. Some people who recovered from COVID are rejecting the vaccine, but will natural immunity be enough to protect them? Let’s connect the dots, health experts warned. Recovering from COVID-19 is not enough to protect from reinfection. While the antibodies from natural infection do provide some protections, the data shows that the vaccines are much better at protecting you. A study published by the CDC found that people with natural immunity were twice as likely to be. Re infected then people who were vaccinated after recovering that is leading doctors to recommend people who have recovered from COVID to get the shot. There is another issue with natural immunity. People re infected with the virus are more likely to not have symptoms that increases the risk that they will spread COVID-19 to others, including immune, compromised friends and family and children as well. While people fighting coronavirus for the second time do tend to have milder cases, that doesn’t mean. Everyone is safe. There are exceptions, and reinfected patients are ending up hospitalized. One case presented to The Lancet journal found a 25 year old man whose second bout with COVID was more severe than the first.
