Abstract

According to a TIME Magazine article, repeat COVID-19 infections can have harmful effects on the body, even if the symptoms are less severe than the initial infection. Studies have shown that individuals who have been infected with COVID-19 multiple times are more likely to experience long-term health issues, including heart, lung, and brain problems. Factors such as age and underlying health conditions can increase the risk of complications after repeat infections. Additionally, each infection raises the risk of developing blood clots. It is important to take precautions, such as getting vaccinated and wearing masks, to minimize the risk of multiple infections and their potential long-term effects. [Extracted from the article]
