Mumbai: Doctor Delhi 61 years old is the first proven case suffering from three Covid infections – two of the SARS-COV-2 attacks are caused by the alpha and delta variants which are 22 days.
“The second and third infections occurred after he took his shots and had developed antibodies,” said Dr.
Jayanthi Shastri, Head of the Molecular Diagnostic Laboratory at the Mumbai Kasturba Hospital, the main author of a study that traced Covid’s infection.
On July 27, TOI reported about a Mumbai doctor who had tested positive RT-PCR three times and, like Delhi doctor twice after being fully vaccinated.
However, because reinfection can only be determined through the sequencing of the intact genome and the sample of Doctor Mumbai is still in the study, Delhi doctor who is not named into the first proven case.
Studies by Kasturba Hospital and the CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Delhi Integrative Biology, on Wednesday are accepted for the publication of medical journals reviewed by peer-reviewed ‘.
One of his colleagues, Dr.
Swapneil Parikh, said the team had coined the term “breakthrough reinfection” to mark the case.
Even though it described the infection that occurred about 15 days after taking a vaccine for it, ‘breakthrough reinfection’ highlights two Delhi Doctor infections – or reinfection – after full vaccination.
US centers for disease control state the average time between reinfection is between 45 and 90 days.
ICMR time frame is 104 days.
“However, our research stipulates that doctors get reinfection in 19 days,” said Dr.
Shastri.
The doctors were first infected in August 2020 and he took a vaccine shot on February 1 and March 15.
Patients need hospitalization during the third infection, which lasts for more than 45 days.
He’s fine now.
