Just the News: COVID survivors with natural immunity at low risk for reinfection or severe symptoms, study finds

 Again and again, I see evidence that natural immunity is the best immunity. This study examines one particular aspect of that principle.

An excerpt from the article:

“Reinfections had 90% lower odds of resulting in hospitalization or death than primary infections,” the researchers said. “…Reinfections were rare and were generally mild, perhaps because of the primed immune system after primary infection.”

“Accordingly, for a person who has already had a primary infection, the risk of having a severe reinfection is only approximately 1% of the risk of a previously uninfected person having a severe primary infection,” the study concluded.
