Recovered patients who allegedly got reinfected?

They weren't, they were false positives, as suspected originally.

One response to “Recovered patients who allegedly got reinfected?”

  1. I suspect there is more to the Committee's report than mentioned in this article. Their false positive explanation is quite plausible and many of us suspected it was a strong possibility, but this news report doesn't make a strong case for it. So as with much else, we will have to await better and more thoroughly reported data and probably better studies of this important question.
