No, this was a new study from South Korea. Really just looking at antibody levels over time and demonstrated that for most people the levels started to fade after a few months.

Those people who had mild or even no symptoms while being COVID positive saw their antibody levels fall more quickly.

1. Doesn’t mean that people would be reinfected, but certainly could, especially given what we know of other coronaviruses.

2. Says nothing of possible T cell mediated immunity.


Is this it? Looks like it is out of China.

Definitely no reason to truly panic based on these results, as that is only one level of our immune system, especially considering the data involving T-cells.

Agreed, no need to panic. And the odds are probably very small. But it does indicate that there is likely at least some chance of reinfection.

Yeah, that’s it. My bad.

Thanks for finding that and correcting me.

It seems like good research all the same
