Possibility of COVID re-infection if antibodies reduce in 5 months: ICMR DG

While addressing the media amid coronavirus pandemic on October 20, Director General (DG) of Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), Professor Balram Bhargava, said, “If antibodies reduce in any person in five months, then there is a possibility of re-infection (of COVID-19). That is why it is important to wear mask and take precautions even if one was infected earlier.”
