I read that last week in a report coming out of China. It's worrying them because people that have recovered or getting re-infected and their damaged lungs can't handle it again and it's killing them. It's like pneumonia, it scars your lungs. And re-infection with covid 19 happens, meaning that catching it once doesn't necessarily give someone immunity through antibodies. In fact it's lethality increases with each infection you get. The evidence on immunity seems to be a bit sketchy still. Some reports are claiming people have built up immunity but other reports are saying people are getting re-infected. I'm guessing it depends on the person or maybe they contracted different strains of coronavirus.
