Reinfection with the virus that causes COVID-19 means a person was infected, recovered, and then later became infected again. After recovering from COVID-19, most individuals will have some protection from repeat infections. However, reinfections do occur after COVID-19.

William Hanage associate professor of epidemiology, is among experts who think that Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker made the right decision in March 2020 in ordering non-essential businesses to shut down to stop the spread of the pandemic. If anything, Baker should have made the call sooner, he said. “A lot of people died in Massachusetts during that first surge, and not that many people needed to die,” he said.

Even as COVID-19 cases spike in the U.S., joseph allen associate professor of exposure assessment science and director of the healthy building program, said he doesn’t think people “should be forever masking and forever testing. That was part of the emergency of COVID.” Instead, he recommended that businesses upgrade their buildings’ ventilation and filtration systems and that people should stay home when they're sick.

  




Now that China has lifted its restrictive COVID-19 policies, the country is likely to see waves of infections and deaths.  associate professor of epidemiology, said that China could see more than 2 million deaths in the coming months. He and other experts noted that China is very vulnerable because its population is undervaccinated and lacks natural immunity from infection, and because the country has a limited supply of treatments.


 Melvin J. and Geraldine L. Glimcher Associate Professor of Immunology and Infectious Diseases, said that COVID has not yet been tamed into a common cold; SARS-CoV-2 till seems to spread more efficiently and more quickly than a cold, and it’s more likely to trigger severe disease or long-term illness.
