Researchers find first US case of COVID-19 reinfection
Researchers have documented what appears to be the first U.S. instance of someone getting reinfected with COVID-19.
In a preprint of a paper submitted to the journal The Lancet, researchers said a 25-year-old man in Nevada was reinfected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus in late May, after recovering from a relatively mild case the month before.
Infectious disease experts said reinfections are normal and should be expected, and caution against drawing broad conclusions.
