There are still so many unanswered questions when it comes to the coronavirus. Among them: “Could a person who had coronavirus get infected again?” 

In South Korea, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention just announced that dozens of patients who were thought to have been cured of the virus have tested positive again.

There’s also been discussion regarding an antibody test to get people back to work, as those who have been exposed to the virus form antibodies in their bloodstream that may help fight off another infection. 

But some are still comparing the coronavirus to the seasonal flu.

Meanwhile, debates also continue about what precautions should be taken during the pandemic when shopping or ordering food via delivery.

To help Currents News answer some of these questions and debates is Dr. Robert Tiballi, an infectious disease expert with the Catholic Medical Association.
