The 4 cases of secondary infection reported in the Netherlands were all elderly people over 60 years old, with mild symptoms. The interval between their first and second infections ranges from a few weeks to a few months.

On the 24th local time, Belgium reported a second infection of new coronary pneumonia in a woman in her 50s. Belgian virologist Van Lanster said that the cause of the second infection of the woman may be that after the first infection with the new coronavirus in March, only a small amount of antibodies were produced. He also said that the structure of the new coronavirus is more stable than that of the influenza virus, but the new coronavirus has begun to mutate, which also means that the vaccine being developed may not provide long-term protection to people.

This was the second time he was infected with the new crown virus, not "Fuyang", the first case in the world.

For this phenomenon
Academician Zhong Nanshan made the latest judgment
Re-infection of COVID-19 patients
This is a very isolated phenomenon
Zhong Nanshan:
The second infection of COVID-19 patients is an isolated phenomenon
In an interview on August 27, Academician Zhong Nanshan talked about his views on the phenomenon of secondary infections among survivors of the new crown.

This is completely unnecessary." Zhong Nanshan said: "There have been reports of secondary infections of patients who have recovered from COVID-19. This is a very isolated phenomenon and very rare. I hope that everyone will not look at people who have recovered from the new coronary pneumonia in a different light."
