Probably immune: These are important questions but the answers aren't yet certain. With or without symptoms, infected people probably are contagious for about 2 weeks, but for some people it might be shorter or longer. Probably anyone who has been infected and recovered, with or without symptoms, is immune to a new infection. Research is underway on these issues.
