The risk of death, hospitalization and serious health issues from COVID-19 jumps significantly with reinfection compared with a first bout with the virus, regardless of vaccination status, a study published on Thursday suggests.

"Reinfection with COVID-19 increases the risk of both acute outcomes and long COVID," said Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. "This was evident in unvaccinated, vaccinated and boosted people."

People in the study with repeat infections were more than three times more likely to develop lung problems, three times more likely to suffer heart conditions and 60% more likely to experience neurological disorders than patients who had been infected only once. The higher risks were most pronounced in the first month after reinfection but were still evident six months later, researchers found.

However, Dr. Celine Gounder, an infectious disease epidemiologist and an editor-at-large at Kaiser Health News, said there seemed to be a "plateauing effect with multiple infections," with less of a jump in risk after the second infection.

There was no study, you just made that shit up. This is all that you do, is make up news stories that do not exist because nobody's watching your pathetic Channel anymore. Everyone knows there never was a pandemic. They know they were conned and u r just trying to remain relevant

mutations from the jab!!!

That is not how a virus works.

Is that because the vaccine has fucked with you ability to have natural protection?

Well I've had it at least twice and the second time was better than the first by far. The 3rd, if it was even covid, was almost nothing.

Headline makes it seem way worse than it is. Read the full article, turns out ctv spreading fear again

More lies from your corrupt mainstream media!

'This was evident in unvaccinated, vaccinated and boosted people.' Aren't you all glad you got jabbed and boosted? 😂

So majority or people who took the jab are now getting hit harder than the first round when they didn't have the jab 🤦🏻‍♂️... I'm sorry people that you've been tricked by your government and fed lies but stop boosting yourselves with that crap just read the headline here lol

Bahahahhahahahaa

💤💤💤💤🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

Stop with the fear mongering. This narrative is dead. Move on

Cant CTV report on a lost dog or snowy weather rather than make up smack about the flu?

Let it go ctv

False

Completely provided out of context. Repeat ear infections are also worse for you than the first one.

... for frail, multi vaccinated elderly.

That’s what happens when you keep injecting yourself with experimental gene-editing therapeutics. Your immune system, which worked fine before start to not work. Good luck to all of those that fell for the biggest lie every bestowed on an unsuspecting population.

After I took vax, I've got lifetime immunity.... Not just that, I think I've Spiderman characteristics, I'm able to climb walls. I can also read people's minds. Vx very effective. Pharma is amazing. Look how they prevent cancer, asthma, diabetes, autism with 1 vax.

Stop…. It’s like non stop fear mongering with you guys this week

Has anyone here graduated from Joe Rogan University?

Fear and more fear. BS

That was known very early that the vax didn’t stop anything but it was consider a Conspiracy Theory- actually every Conspiracy Theory that swirled around the vaccine has been proven true

😂🤡🥱

Do your social media people actually read your own articles?

Experts not involved with the study said the VA population does not reflect the general population. Patients at VA health facilities are generally older, sicker. This is the reality. Not your fear porn.

It's a cold/flu. Unless your vaxxed. Get over it. Stop the fear mongering. Be an actual news outlet

Wrong. There’s no COVID in ALberta. Smith and the ucp ers say so. You know, the most descriminated people ,,,,, blah blah blah.

This headline grossly misrepresents what this study actually showed.
