Most reinfection studies were done on people who contacted it more than once in a year IIRC, and COVID suppresses T cell levels for nearly a year, or sometimes even more.
I'm not sure we can say more infections = higher risk per infection, but each additional infection is another roll of the dice in any case.
One virologist coined the term, "ARDS Roulette". I don't want to play that game.
