University of Hong Kong scientists claim to have the first evidence of someone being reinfected with the virus that causes COVID-19.

Genetic tests revealed that a 33-year-old man returning to Hong Kong from a trip to Spain in mid-August had a different strain of the coronavirus than the one he'd previously been infected with in March, said Dr. Kelvin Kai-Wang To, the microbiologist who led the work.

The paper has been accepted by the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases but not yet published, and some independent experts urged caution until full results are available. It's not clear how different a virus needs to be to trigger illness, but the new work suggests that "COVID patients should not be complacent about prevention measures" and should continue social distancing, wearing masks and other ways to reduce infection, To said."We've always known reinfection was a possibility and I think this is highly suggestive" that it occurred in this case, said Dr. Jesse Goodman, a former U.S.

"The real question is what this means for severity of disease" if that occurs, and whether such people can infect others, she said.

Only The Truth of COVID-19 is the key to end this pandemic.

Who the fuck cares

Or - it never went away, and instead hid in the body until it was somehow triggered to re-emerge.

No shit ... it’s a virus 🦠

Is he still living after getting this apparent Deadly Disease twice?

Wuhan China has said there’s been a few people who caught covid19 a second time

You’re gonna have to start paying me to click

Fake news. No proof there is a virus.

Like going out to win the lotto twice.

And?

Hong Kong. Wooooooo

Yup, and his immune system worked Amazing

'The fear of the virus is exaggerated. COVID-19 is a comparatively harmless disease.' Professor Klaus Püschel is the head of forensic medicine at the University Hospital (UKE). He is autopsying all those who died of COVID-19 in Hamburg.

If he survived it the first time then what’s the big deal? He obviously can get through it...🤷🏻‍♀️

He was asymptomatic the second time

Hahaha, second wave right!!

So different strains...a vaccine will not be effective as the virus mutates Pass it on, thnx

hmmm,, this is puzzling,, how did he fall for the same hoax twice

A? SINGLE PERSON?

CovidHoax

Ya he did

awesome so no point in a vaccine then right Billy Gates

Says testing that one day says positive and the next day says negative. A treasure trove of proven reporting by BreakingFakeCTVNews.

I THOUGHT THEY SAID THIS AVOUT WUHAN MONTHS AGO... QUIT SCARING PEOPLE. CREEPERS

God help us 🙏

We’re f$&*ed... thanks 🇨🇳

Yeah me too, at least once a year.

The imortant question is though, is he contagious

That is very scary!!! 😟

23.4 million cases of covid world wide and you focus on one bullshit case, 😂😂😂😂 you clowns are pitiful!! Any other fear-mongering to bring to our attention or is covid enough, no climate change or alien invasions to scare the masses with?

BC has never done better

It figures the only thing made in China that works as designed is this China Virus.

Ctv 🐴💩

Sooo, immunity is just a fallacy? Herd or otherwise?

Ya more likely the crappy tests are wrong with false positives happening all the time. lamestream Media are creaming over potential of multiple vaccinations per year chaching!!

🙄

Cough Bullshit Cough

Scientist say Martians landed and we are about to be invaded.

that sucks

That's not surprising. 'It will not be possible for the Dr. Fauci’s of the world to dismiss Professor Giuseppe Tritto as a crank. Not only is he an internationally known expert in biotechnology and nanotechnology who has had a stellar academic career, but he is also the ... /

fakenews. Anybody can be a scientist or a doctor these days apparently.

PsyMotiv No life long immunity...”Genetic tests revealed that a 33-year-old man returning to Hong Kong from a trip to Spain in mid-August had a different strain of the coronavirus than the one he'd previously been infected with in March...”

Some people are just show-offs.

🙄

Shocking....kind of like other viruses

Did he die either time?

China must know more about this virus then they are actually saying

NEVER BELIEVE CHINA

Almost every known virus you can get twice

Maybe he never recovered from the first time he had it?

blah blah
