Blind (with no evidence from data) faith in T-cell immunity is pretty awful for people unlucky enough to be re-infected.
Expect no intervention and underreporting, except for cases bad enough to go through ER.

Why?
When people take long-lasting immunity for granted,
family & doctors/hospitals all tend to brush a patient with mild symptoms off and ration testing (since testing is backlogged in many cities), until symptoms are severe enough for an ER visit.

This strategy may work fine for a 20 yo, but having a 40 yo going through COVID twice, both times without treatment until oxygen saturation is low, is not going to be good for recovery.
