A member asked:
If someone coughed at me immediately after i recovered from a cold, what is the chance of me getting sick again ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If its the: "same" virus ..NO Chance you are (temporarily) immune..however since there are many viruses which can result in coughing there is a small chance that your recent "battle" with your own infection has made you susceptible for another! NOt TO WORRY ...Take some Vitamin C !!!! BE WELL Hope this helps! Dr z
