Can Corona Virus Be Contracted Twice by Kimzo: 7:37pm On Mar 18, 2020
Just as the whole world is battling the spread of Covid-19, and we are told how to prevent and self isolate incase you become symptomatic .....

My question is incase of someone that has the virus and receives treatment, is there a chance the person can contract the Virus again even after he has successful received treatment the first time, am just worried as much as most Nigerians are...
Can you help push this to the frontpage....

Unfortunately the second time is more deadly

Did you get re-infected

I won't say a word

Well not exactly. Ypu shouldn't have again on subsequent exposure
The immune system would have been well equipped already after surviving the first exposure and gain immunity

There's a case of a woman in Japan who contracted it twice. On that basis, I can say it's possible.

.
The body immune system has a grouo of cells called memory B cells. Whenever a person experiences a novel viral attack, some memory B cells are formed so that when he/she exeriences subsequent ones, their body can fight it off easily. This is the same basis of how vaccines work
