#Coronavirus Reinfection:
🧬1st infection: March (symptomatic)
🧬2nd infection: August (asymptomatic)
🧬Two virus genomes differed by 24 nucleotides
🧬Proves that 2nd infection was not tied to 1st infection
🧬2nd infection caused by #reinfection, not prolonged viral shedding

Neutralizing Antibody:
🧬Tested NEGATIVE for IgG against SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein 10 days after symptom onset of 1st infection AND 1 day after hospitalization for 2nd infection
🧬Thus unknown if patient mounted neutralizing antibody response to 1st infection, didn’t last if yes
