Friend tested positive seven weeks after first feeling sick. Had no symptoms after they cleared first time.Milder symptoms this time around. But no test results for first bout. Does anyone know if all these people testing positive have actually been contagious all this time?
There is no official data but most doctors are assuming that once symptoms resolve you’re not contagious anymore. I don’t know how they’re treating these cases of reinfection, perhaps they assume the virus is finding dead cells and they’re really symptomatic with something else? I keep hearing more and more of these stories.
Most recently, an uncle and aunt both tested positive when they were showing symptoms Purim time. They recovered and were healthy for weeks. Last week, my aunt fell ill again (worse this time, she can’t get out of bed) and my uncle went to test (as a requirement before an unrelated surgery) and tested positive again.. this is 6 weeks after the first test
