One thing to know: Infections are common after getting over COVID-19. But some people are more susceptible

Feel like you’re getting one virus after another post-COVID? There are many reasons why that could be the case.

With the Omicron subvariant “soup” currently doing the rounds, the antibodies you generate in the face of one infection don’t necessarily protect you against other subvariants for long.

But the reasons some people seem to be more susceptible to reinfection or other diseases after COVID are complex.

Paul Griffin, an infectious disease physician and microbiologist at the University of Queensland, said “some immune systems are overactive, while others are less equipped to protect against certain types of infections”.

Researchers want to develop drugs that stop the virus getting into the body in the first place. That includes nasal sprays that stop the virus attaching to cells in the nose.

Other researchers are looking at the potential for nasal sprays to stop the virus replicating in the nose, or to make the nose a hostile place to enter the body.
