According to Bertoletti, we do not know for sure whether this cross-reactivity protects people from infection with COVID-19 or even whether it reduces the severity of their symptoms.Other experts say the amount of original virus, or"viral dose," you are exposed to may determine how sick you get. “There has been some recent data to suggest that one of the break points is about age 10. That is, [after age 10], they get infected, can transmit the virus, but don’t get as seriously ill, whereas kids under the age of 10 seem not to get infected as readily,” said Schaffner.
