Experts explain why reinfections happen and what you can do to prevent them.
But Camins noted that what experts may define as a"mild" infection can still feel subjectively awful — and, of course, cause disruptions in your daily life."In most cases, the symptoms are less severe, meaning your likelihood of death or severe disease is lower," he said.
And there is still the small chance that you may experience severe symptoms or complications — or that you'll spread the virus to someone with a weakened immune system or other underlying condition that puts them at a higher risk.Having had COVID-19 in the past will protect you to some degree from reinfection in the future.
In general, the experts said that you'll have some protection for about three to six months after a COVID-19 infection. But the protection you’ll get from this type of “natural immunity” can be unpredictable, Yang said, meaning there's no guarantee you won’t be reinfected in this time frame. People who have more severe bouts of COVID-19, meaning people who were hospitalized, typically end up with more robust protection from the virus, he explained. But on the other hand, that also probably means they have a risk factor that made it more likely for them to get COVID-19 once — and people in that situation really don't want to get it again.
