摘要：
The possibilities of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to reinfect individuals have not been reported yet. All reported hypothesis of reinfection has been attributed to either relapse of the disease or having a mild course of symptoms. We report two cases of COVID-19 positive patients where they had complete resolution of symptoms and negative COVID-19 results. Weeks later, they returned with milder symptoms and a positive COVID-19 culture swab. In conclusion, early stages of COVID-19 where mild signs and symptoms are reported can be prolonged and the virus can stay dormant in the body for relapse later on.
