Me, me!
I wonder if they'll find similar results as they have the OG SARS where people who had recovered were showing T-Cells 17 years after they got it.
Reinfection isn't my concern as much as infectiousness.
We have a little girl with CF and have taken it as serious as anyone. Wife broke her toe two weeks ago and has been home resting. I think she left the house maybe 3 times and I left maybe once in those two weeks. She got COVID. Thankfully pretty mild symptoms and no symptoms for me or our daughter. We get tested tomorrow. She is also an NP than handles calls for the U of I. The last few months if they got near 400 calls in a day she thought that was a lot. They had 675+ calls today about covid. Sounds like its been over 600 calls all week.
