Re-infection is very rare, so the chance that it happened to two people in the same household is extremely rare. Are you certain you were infected with covid both times?
Not certain, but the second time we had a positive PCR test to confirm. The first time, there were no tests in NYC but close contacts had it and we had the same exact symptoms (which are not similar no any other flu/disease we have had).
I know it is, my point is that two spouses getting re-infected isn't two independent things.
It's not like bringing your bomb onto a plane decreases the odds of an attack, because what are the odds of two bombs.
The devil is in the details here. If natural immunity wears off after 6-9 months (as some studies suggest), and one spouse got infected again after that period, then the odds of the other one of getting re-infected too are pretty high.
