Is it known whether anyone who recovered from the original SARS has subsequently been infected with SAR CoV2?

Good question. I don't know the answer, but I suspect it's possible that people who were close to the epicentres in both outbreaks may fall in the group exposed to both agents. I am unsure what will be the cross-reactivity of antibody against SARS and SARS-CoV-2. I am intrigued and will look into this further.
