TORONTO -- One of the most perplexing parts of the coronavirus pandemic has been the fact that some people become seriously sick with the virus while their closest loved ones remain healthy and, in some cases, test negative.
“So you might have a stronger immune system that makes you less susceptible to becoming infected or that makes you more resistant to the infection,” Dr. Eleanor Fish, an immunology professor at the University of Toronto, told CTVNews.ca in a phone interview on Wednesday.Everyone’s immune system reacts differently when exposed to a virus. Someone with a strong, healthy immune system who is exposed to a virus may not become infected, or may become infected but show few symptoms.
“There are many examples of families where one individual becomes infected and … with proper hand washing, not touching their nose and mouth, you can actually prevent transmission within a family,” she said. It’s important to understand that, just because someone doesn’t test positive for the coronavirus or show symptoms, does not mean they are somehow immune. At this point, little is known about immunity, though experts do believe people who recover from the virus experience a period of immunity. Precisely how long that immunity may last is still unknown.
