If you're infected with COVID-19 again, what symptoms might you expect?
What to expect with the coronavirus strain BA.2
The BA.2 subvariant of the Omicron variant has a distinct set of symptoms that manifest themselves differently in each individual.
According to CNN, researchers recently conducted an in-depth examination into the BA.2 variant's reinfection risks, looking into whether the BA.2 variant can infect persons who have already been infected with the Omicron variant.
- The researchers looked nearly 140,000 viral genomes from infected patients for the study.
- There were 263 reinfections discovered.
- After receiving the original omicron version, the researchers discovered 47 persons who had been reinfected with BA.2.

When compared to omicron, BA.2 may generate more severe symptoms. According to CNN, the symptoms of the reinfected were all over the place.
- The majority of reinfections were minor.
2.COVID-19 symptoms were absent in some persons or were modest in others. - According to CNN, about five people experienced "moderate symptoms related to flu-like symptoms."
- There were no hospitalizations or deaths recorded.
The broad picture: There's a lot of evidence that the omicron variation can reinfect people, notably through the BA.2 subvariant, according to anecdotal data.
1." You may acquire omicron twice," said Stanley Weiss, an epidemiologist at the Rutgers School of Public Health.
2." It's absolutely conceivable if you had a minor illness, didn't get a very effective immune response, and you are exposed again with a large dose of the virus," he added.
