Those who have coronavirus may not be afraid of re-infection in the fall, says Dr. Anthony Fauchi, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and head of the White House Coronavirus Commission, USA. About this writes Business Insider According to the chief American immunologist, it is unlikely to become infected with a second time coronavirus. “Available data on coronavirus infections suggest that antibodies to COVID-19 will persist and protect the host for a“ reasonable ”period of time. In other words, a person who has been ill in February-March will most likely not get sick in September-October when the second peak of the pandemic is expected, ”Fauchi believes. The expert bases his opinion on the fact that the mutation rate of the new coronavirus is insufficient to annually form new strains that are radically different from previous ones..

This means that they risk getting infected again..
