It is less likely that you will be infected again so soon after having had Covid.Glad you had 1 dose of the vaccine;you do need to get your second dose and then eventually a booster. The virus may continue to mutate and with new variants, it’s impossible to say you won’t get it again. But, if you finish your series and booster, you are much less likely to become seriously ill.Still wear a mask!

It is not uncommon particularly that new variants occur. Good Luck
