There is no definitive answer as to whether people who recover from COVID-19 become infected again.
The statement came from Maria Van Kerkove, head of the World Health Organization's anti-COVID-19 team.
He noted that in the past, people infected with the SARS coronavirus developed antibodies against the disease, noting that these patients acquired an immune system against the virus for 12 months or more: "The duration of the immune system in influenza is shorter.
Therefore, we do not have a complete answer as to whether COVID-19 can infect a person for the second time. ”
