texting you like me saying what do i have at this point in my life, let's talk covid first? what are the risks right now of reinfection. i had covid a month and a half ago. should i be worried that when you get infected again? >> yes, yasmin, the quick question. i do think people should take reinfection seriously. general, we like to think that serious infection and any boosters you might have received give you enough immunity to prevent the infection. it's really to stop the virus from rejecting. you but we are seeing jn.1 going around the world like a crazy kind of fever. and literally, it's infecting people. and i've had patients that are getting reinfected. and these are young healthy patients. what we think might be happening is that immunity you get from previous infections and even for the booster is not just that long-lasting and i do think that you have about 4 to 6 weeks of protection from a prior infection. it doesn't mean you should run around and not take precautions
