The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) said on Tuesday that there have been three cases of re-infection with the corona virus in the country. Two of these cases have come to light in Mumbai and Ahmedabad. ICMR Director General Balaram Bhargava said that the time limit for re-infection has been fixed at 100 days. Several studies have also revealed that antibodies are usually present in the body of a person once infected for four months.

Bhargava said that re-infection is a problem, which first surfaced in Hong Kong. He said that we have received some data from the World Health Organization (WHO), referring to two dozen cases of re-infection worldwide. Efforts are being made to collect some data by talking to people who have been re-infected by telephone. Bhargava said that the WHO has also not yet stated whether a person can become infected again after 90 days, 100 days or 110 days. But now the government has fixed its time limit to 100 days. According to this, there is a risk of re-infection after 100 days.
