This case report highlights that reinfection can occur rapidly (62-67 d) among immunocompromised patients after a prolonged disease. We provide substantial proof of prolonged infection through repeated nucleic acid amplification tests and positive viral culture at day 56 of the disease course, and we put forward evidence of reinfection with viral genome sequencing.
