The World Health Organization (WHO) announced on Saturday that it was investigating reports that the test for Corona virus patients called cure became positive again a few days later.
South Korea on Friday confirmed 91 patients with coronary virus recurrence in the country.
According to the WHO guidelines, patients with Code 19 are declared cured when they have at least 2 test negatives.
Patients in South Korea were also being considered for discharge from the hospital when Cod-19 test negatives arrived, but their tests came back positive.
The Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) director Ji Ong Won Ong said during the briefing that the patient was not infected again, but that the virus may have been re-infected.

South Korean health officials said it was unclear what was behind the trend, while an investigation into the outbreak was underway.
Now, a spokesperson for the World Organization said in its statement: "We are in touch with our specialists and are submitting more details about these positive cases. It is very important that when samples of suspected patients are collected, this process is correct." To be completed in a manner. '
Recent research reports from the World Health Organization have shown that it takes 2 weeks for symptoms to appear in clinical patients with Cod 19, until clinical recovery, but it is not yet clear why 91 patients in South Korea recover. How did the tests come back positive afterwards.
It is thought that more than 17 million people have become ill as a result of this disease worldwide and more than 3,000 have died.
But so far, more than 300,000 people have been able to defeat the disease.
Infectious diseases, including the director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Anthony Foochie, believe that those who cure the disease are immune to it.
Experts say that people who are infected with the virus become antibodies that help prevent the corona virus from recurring, but it is unclear how long this protection can last.
Dr. Anthony Foochy said those who defeat the Corona virus have probably developed a strong immune system that will help prevent the next wave of the virus.
Many countries hope that the power of the virus-infected population will increase to the extent that they will not be affected again.
In keeping with the same view, blood plasma treatment treatments are also being tried in different parts of the world.
