I don’t think you read my comment in the context of what it was replying too. It was a response to someone saying people can get reinfected. The reports of this appears not to the case for the reasons I and others explained (false positives/negatives). I speculate it might possibly happen for real though in the case of immune compromised people who are lucky enough to survive, but due to being immune compromised do not mount a proper adaptive response. Thus develop no antibodies and and thus are able to be reinfected. Obviously that would be rare. (But so are these case reports that are driving these rumors of “reinfection” overall.)
Not really sure how you read that as somehow advocating immune compromised people do not need to take this seriously.
