Dear Victor Norberto,
Editor's Pick: In the first study to confirm a case of COVID-19 reinfection in the USA, researchers found evidence that an individual with no known immune disorders or underlying conditions was infected with SARS-CoV-2 in two separate occurrences. An Article published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases reports on a 25-year old male living in Washoe County, Nevada, USA, who was infected with two distinct SARS-CoV-2 infections within a 48-day timeframe, while testing negative in between infections. The patient’s second infection was more severe, resulting in hospitalization with oxygen support, indicating previous exposure to COVID-19 may not translate to guaranteed total immunity, but that further research into reinfections is required. The authors note that all individuals—whether previously diagnosed or not—should take identical precautions to prevent infection with SARS-CoV-2. Read the Article here.
We hope you find the Resource Centre on COVID-19 to be informative. 
We want to make sure that you receive information that is interesting and relevant to you, so if you prefer to receive updates to include new Chinese translations please click here.
