Guilford County reports first local cases of COVID-19 reinfection

The Guilford County Health Department says reinfections prove the immunity people get from having coronavirus only lasts so long.

That’s after the Guilford County Health Department recently reported the first local cases of reinfection. That’s where someone tested positive for the virus. Then they went through all the symptoms, had a negative test, and more than 3 months later tested positive again.

The health department says out of all the people that have been tested since March, there have been some reinfections, not a lot. Still, they said it proves the immunity you get from having coronavirus only lasts so long.
