so, when my daughter has bronchitis and has been coughing in her pillow for several days, you don't see the point of making sure that pillow case is clean before using it again after she's better? Like, you don't think she might get a second infection?
because in my experience, kids get sick again and again, sometimes it takes a month to get through the cycle
- wsy 8y agoIf the immune system has 'won', you can't get a second infection from exactly the same germ again. (The only exception I know of is HIV: this virus fools your immune system)
- jonnycomputer 8y agoin the optimistic scenario, I guess. i have doubts that things work out so well in practice.
- TillE 8y agoNo, that's how the immune system works. It produces antibodies. Unless you've got some crazy mutating thing, recovery and immunity are synonymous.
