Reactivation of SARS-CoV-2 infection following recovery from COVID-19.
Many individuals test positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA after recovering from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), but the incidence of reactivation is unknown. We, therefore, estimated the incidence of reactivation among individuals who had recovered from COVID-19 and determined its predictors. ⋯ Risk-stratified surveillance should be conducted among patients who have recovered from COVID-19.
