Symptoms of the second case started in late May, a month after the patient reported his initial symptoms as having resolved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n       The two strains of virus were genetically distinct, signaling that it is unlikely that the man simply remained unknowingly infected with the virus in one, longer bout, the authors wrote. The paper notes that the patient\u2019s second case of COVID-19 was more severe than his first, requiring supplemental oxygen and admission to a hospital after he suffered from shortness of breath.<\/p>\n<p>The Nevada case comes after similar reinfection case reports from locations including Hong Kong, the Netherlands, Belgium and Ecuador. The growing number of examples in medical literature bolsters evidence that immunity to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, might in at least some cases only last for a limited period, similar to coronaviruses that cause the common cold, researchers said.<\/p>\n<p>The emerging reinfection reports don\u2019t necessarily signal problems for efforts to create an effective vaccine, said Akiko Iwasaki, a professor of immunobiology at Yale University, who wrote a commentary about the new paper. \u201cJust because the natural infection doesn\u2019t give protection doesn\u2019t mean the vaccines cannot,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s a separate issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/covid-19-reinfection-documented-in-nevada-adds-to-questions-on-virus-immunity-11602541808?mod=mktw\" class=\"icon none\">An expanded version of this report appears on WSJ.com.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also popular on WSJ.com:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/politics-dominates-as-amy-coney-barretts-confirmation-hearings-begin-in-senate-11602495000?mod=mktw\" class=\"icon none\">Republicans, Democrats clash at confirmation hearing for Amy Coney Barrett.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/silicon-valley-pay-cuts-ignite-tech-industry-covid-19-tensions-11602435601?mod=mktw\" class=\"icon none\">Silicon Valley pay cuts ignite tech-industry COVID-19 tensions.<\/a><\/p>\n<div data-layout=\"\n              inline\" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n        media-object\n        type-InsetCommentingPromo\n            \n            inline\n  article__inset\n        article__inset--type-InsetCommentingPromo\n            article__inset--inline\n  \"><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"byline article__byline\">\n<p>      <span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author  hasMenu\" data-scrim='{\"type\":\"author\",\"header\":\"Anna Wilde Mathews\",\"subhead\":\"The Wall Street Journal\",\"list\":[]}' itemscope itemprop=\"author\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<h4 itemprop=\"name\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Anna_Wilde_Mathews\"><\/span>Anna Wilde Mathews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">News category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/news\/story.asp?guid=%7BC1E42224-0CF1-11EB-9696-E28E43EF3552%7D&#038;siteid=rss&#038;rss=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;# COVID-19 reinfection documented in Nevada man &#8221;
