Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children During Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta and Omicron Variant Circulation-United States, July 2021-January 2022. One study shows that unvaccinated people are 2.34 times more likely to be reinfected with COVID-19 than those who are fully vaccinated which drives home the importance of being vaccinated, even if youve already had the virus. Initially, yes, you would be protected from a second infection, but if that decline in antibody levels is rapid from the infection, then you may not necessarily have enough of the antibodies to prevent a second infection. For example, if you became infected from the BA-2 subvariant, this doesn't prevent you from getting infected with BA-4 or BA-5, says Neil Maniar, professor of practice in the Department of Health Sciences. Although people might still experience symptoms the second time around, Dr Vally said vaccination should prevent more serious consequences. Lancet Reg Health Eur. Effectiveness of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Vaccines Against COVID-19 Among Hospitalized Adults Aged >/=65 Years - United States, January-March 2021. The reason for this, Maniar says, is that a PCR test can still detect trace amounts of the virus even after someone is no longer symptomatic or infectious.

Now, doctors are preparing for a new dominant strain XBB.1.5. Pediatr Infect Dis J. Especially after you got vaccinated? "As a rule of thumb, you would expect that, especially if it was the same variant,"said Dr Cromer of the Kirby Institute. Ayet-to-be peer-reviewed studypublished late last week found BA.4 and BA.5 can reinfect people who caught Omicron BA.1, but that vaccinated people were much better protected than unvaccinated people. Think again. "Within Australia, this is the first time we would expect to see a whole lot of reinfection, because before December, we really didn't have huge numbers of infections," she said.

Rate and severity of suspected SARS-Cov-2 reinfection in a cohort of PCR-positive COVID-19 patients. What happens now. But it's also Omicron's unique mutations which make it more apt at sneaking past our body's immune defences that have caused reinfection rates to surge, Dr Vally said. That transmissibility, paired with waning immunity against infection and symptomatic disease, means we're potentially more vulnerable to a second hit. Is this overreaction or nothing new for the bard? Thats a really good thing., It means that we have resources at our disposal, like vaccines and masks, to gather in relative safety, he says. The answer, he says, lies in spike proteins, the part of a virus that attaches to the receptor on a host cell. PLoS One. "Anytime you get a variant that has mutated in a way that allows it to evade the immune response you're going to get more infections in people that are either vaccinated, or have had a previous infection," Dr Vally said. The toxic train derailment in Ohio was only a matter of time, Northeastern experts say. Jul 15 2021;73(Suppl 1):S5-S16. Studies suggest that reinfection with SARS-CoV-2 with the same virus variant as the initial infection or reinfection with a different variant are both possible; early reinfection within 90 days of the initial infection can occur.

The amount of time it takes to test negative after being infected varies from person to person, he says, but its important to keep testing in order to make informed decisions. "Especially in people who are not vaccinated, having had one infection with Omicron doesn't provide a huge amount of immunity against a second infection.". Studies suggest that reinfection with SARS-CoV-2 with the same virus variant as the initial infection or reinfection with a different variant are both possible; early reinfection within 90 days of the initial infection can occur. If, indeed, people can become infected with COVID-19 twice within a period of weeks or months, it poses two major stumbling blocks in getting the pandemic under control.
