‘No evidence’ you can’t get Covid-19 twice, says World Health Organization

WHO said there is currently “no evidence” that people who have recovered from Covid-19 are protected from a second infection – even if they now have antibodies against it. They warned against issuing “immunity passports” or “risk-free certificates” to people who have been infected, saying the practice may actually increase the risk of spread as they may ignore standard advice. They also warned that the accuracy and reliability of tests for antibodies to coronavirus were not certain.
