More Than 1 Million People Have Recovered From COVID-19 Worldwide

More than 1 million people around the world have recovered from COVID-19, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University, as reported by NPR.
Around 154,000 people in the United States have recovered from the deadly virus.
Although people who recover from a viral infection often build up an immunity to later contracting the same disease, it remains unclear whether this is the case for COVID-19. The World Health Organization said last week that one-time infection of the coronavirus has not yet been proven to result in immunity.
