This case study shows an example of the changes that can happen within an immunocompromised patient who is infected with COVID-19 multiple times. Furthermore, this case demonstrates how simultaneous coinfection with two lineages of COVID-19 can lead to unclear lineage assignment by standard methods, which are resolved by further investigation. When analyzing chronic COVID-19 infection and reinfection cases, care must be taken to properly identify the lineages of the virus present.
