I was exposed to covid on 9/11/2020.
My covid igg antibodies reactive value is 17.24.
Is there any chances of reinfection again?
How long does the antibodies last?

Question

Reinfection has happened in many COVID recovered cases. This is mainly because the patients think they are immune to it once they have been affected. Even after getting infected, a person can become COVID positive again, be it asymptomatic or symptomatic. Now the Antibodies will last for at least a few months (2-5 months as per studies) ,but if there is a second wave which is slowly emerging, there are chances for a reinfection. It is best to follow the Safety guidelines as it was being followed at the beginning of the year. If you found my answer helpful, please leave a like/ thanks. Thank you.
