First report of #COVID19 #reinfection from #India - two #asymptomatic health workers identified on routine #surveillance

#CSIRfightsCOVID19
#Genome sequencing of the #SARSCoV2 isolates from both the episodes suggest distinctly different virus , confirming reinfection.
Since the individuals were #asymptomatic during both episodes, and identified on regular #surveillance suggest asymptomatic #reinfections could be an under-reported entity. 2/2
Sinxe #healthcare workers have much higher risk of exposure, regular #surveillance of healthcare workers could potentially uncover the real #incidence
