Dr. Esper explains.
“It’s very premature to make the assumption that just because you had COVID-19 that you’re safe from it.
I don’t think anyone wants to be infected with COVID-19, whether it’s the first time or the second time or the third time — nobody wants it.
Your previous infection may prevent you from getting sick, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t become infected and then spread it to others. You might think you’re safe because your antibodies are there, but if you’re still able to spread it to others for a short period of time, that’s doing no one any good either.”
Dr. Esper adds that being infected once is not a hall pass to ignore all of the protocols put in place — masking, hand washing and physical distancing. If anything, to protect yourself and others, you need to stay on top of those recommendations.
Yep. That sure looks like a cautionary “we don’t know and aren’t assuming” statement, rather than a statement of evidence that immunity does not come with recovering from infection.
