According to Taiwan News,
It’s possible to get infected by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a second time, according to doctors on the frontline in China’s city of Wuhan, leading to death from heart failure in some cases.
The claim is made by doctors working in the Hubei Province capital that is at the center of the epidemic, which has to date infected 69,333 people and killed 1,670. One of the doctors reached out to a relative living in the United Kingdom, who then informed Taiwan News.
Cytokine Release Syndrome or Cytokine Storm
The heart failure that occurs after the reinfection may be related to “cytokine storm” or Cytokine Release Syndrome or CRS.
CRS happens as large numbers of different white blood cells, including T-killer cells and macrophages, attract cytokines or signaling molecules, which in turn attract more white blood cells. The result is an overwhelming immune response that destroys not just the invading microorganisms but several organs as well like the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys leading to multi-system organ failure and death.
