After having the COVID, are we immune or can we get it again and again?

Hello Madam,
According to the information we have to date, having been infected once with COVID-19 would allow for long-term immunity to this virus that does not mutate (like the flu).
Good day,
Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist

Updated on this April 2, 2020:
It is increasingly unclear whether the virus will provide enough immunity for all infected patients to protect them from future infection. Some data from Asia seems to show that people who have had a very mild infection (low fever, almost no cough) could get it again.
We are waiting for more data to see if this will be confirmed by Canadian health organizations.
Happy evening,
Alexander
