CNN: "I feel so powerful, I'll walk into that audience. I'll walk in there, I'll kiss everyone in that audience," Trump said in Sanford, Florida, showing his illness did not teach him to respect his own government's pandemic guidelines. "I'll kiss the guys and the beautiful women and the -- everybody. I'll just give everybody a big, fat kiss." Whoa:::He flipped out.........
 
So now we have the first case of a man contracting the virus twice in the US.

"A 25-year-old man in the U.S. state of Nevada has contracted the coronavirus on two separate occasions, a study in the Lancet Infectious Diseases journal showed, with the patient becoming seriously ill following the second infection."

"The resident of Washoe County, who had no known immune disorders or history of significant underlying conditions, required hospital treatment on testing positive for Covid-19 for the second time."

"On June 5, 48 days after the initial positive test, the patient contracted the virus for the second time. His condition was found to be symptomatically “more severe” than the first."

"“These findings suggest that the patient was infected by SARS-CoV-2 on two separate occasions by a genetically distinct virus. Thus, previous exposure to SARS-CoV-2 might not guarantee total immunity in all cases,” the authors of the study said."

"It had been assumed a second case of the coronavirus would be milder than the first, though it remains unclear why the Nevada patient became more severely ill the second time."

These news stories are pretty superficial. They treat immunity as if it's an either you're immune or you're not situation, when the reality, from what I've read, is that it varies from person to person and you can have a range of immune responses. It's impossible to know at this point whether the few documented cases of recurrence is going to be a typical situation for the general population or if it's something specific to these individuals. That said, I wouldn't put a lot of faith in the herd immunity approach. More likely, based on what's the case with other coronaviruses, you're fairly immune for a while and then can catch it again.

Exactly the point this article is making. Some are more severe than others. Only a few at this point have tested positive twice but it has happened. Some however were less sick the second time.
Read the article.
 
Trump always wants his female appendages standing behind him clapping robotically but no one has seen Melania at any of his ego feeds lately.

I’d already read that article and another one on this case. I forgot that they added the paragraph that said it really doesn’t tell us much more than that it’s possible for some people to get it again.

Except for Trump, of course. He’s super immune.
