COVID-19 >>"True and Helpful" Covid Information Thread

People who recovered from COVID-19 are at little risk of contracting the disease again, according to a study published this week.



Researchers in Qatar examined a cohort of over 353,000 people using national databases that contain information about patients with polymerase-chain-reaction-confirmed infections.



After excluding approximately 87,500 people with a vaccination record, researchers found those with immunity from having recovered from COVID-19 had little risk of reinfection and severe cases of the disease.



Just 1,304 reinfections were identified. That means 0.4 percent of people with natural immunity and without a vaccination record got COVID-19 a second time.



The odds of severe disease were 0.1 percent that at primary infection, according to the study. Just four such cases were detected.



No cases of death were recorded among those who got infected a second time.

So, overall result is very good.



Next questions will be 1. duration  

and 2. when are authorities going to officially recognize it &  allow passports the same as for those vaxxxed.



I assume today all infected have to get vaxxed to qualify for passport?

Does any province or state recognize recovery for vaccine passports?

That's what I was meaning in post above - Pleasing China by not naming it by the next letter is shameful & cowardly
