I don't disagree. However the number of known repeat actual covid cases is rising. It is still a small fraction, however it isn't like the bulk of people that have had it got it in Feb-April of last year. In fact, over 25% of all covid cases are currently active cases. That is a pretty damning number and as you said, almost all of those are going through it the first time. I know there is a lot of anecdotal stuff out there that talks about large portions of populations going through it for the second time. But if you dig deeper, it generally is in areas without a lot of interaction outside their own communities and they weren't actually tested when something tore through them last year.
One other thing that needs to be stated again because it also comes into play on a lot of this. This is the first time in medical history that a sinus swipe testing positive is defined as a case. The reality is that a case requires a medical care component for it to be a case. So for my wife and I, even if we had taken the covid test when we had it, should not have been a case because it was mild enough to not cause us to seek medical attention. The other problem is that most infections take place through the nasal passages. Yes it can happen through the mouth, but the nose is a less destructive path for the virus (from the virus' perspective). For most people, current indications are that it takes several thousand Covid cells for a person to become infected.. Which is why you don't see mass amounts of people getting sick due to going shopping at the grocery store where the virus can live on previously touched items and thus transfer. There just aren't enough cells to make any but the most immune system compromised ill. So a stick is shoved up the nose and grabs a few covid cells and the test comes back positive. But there wasn't enough of a load to actually make the person ill. So a positive test and the person is asymptomatic and follow-up testing shows no antibodies. Meaning that despite a positive test, the person never had covid. The most common symptom of covid is a headache. You know what else causes headaches? Sitting at home in quarantine doing nothing. So the person thinks they had a symptom. But in reality, were never infected. I had a bit of an argument with a friend of mine who's wife was exposed, had a positive test, never had a symptom, and didn't develop antibodies. She never had it. So now, if she actually does get it, they will believe that she got it again instead of it being the first time.
Some might be thinking "what is the big deal with somebody thinking they have caught it twice versus one of those times not actually being a true infection?" The reality is that it is skewed data and that skewed data is used by people who help direct policy. So the more people that are considered to have had it twice means the ability to resume life back to somewhat normal takes a larger hit because the data is skewed showing more and more repeat infections.
