A member asked:
A person recovered from covid-19 will have immunity against it but how long does this immunity last? is it in months, few years or longer ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
COVID 19: Wish we knew the answer to that. We aren't sure and it appears to be quite variable between people. At this point, there is hope for at least 3 to 6 months and possibly considerably longer in some. Time will tell.
