This is a preprint
And it's only of 9 patients (so not very strong)

Which says
When aligned to viral load courses, it seems there is no abrupt virus elimination at the time of seroconversion. Rather, seroconversion early in week 2 coincides with a slow but steady decline of sputum viral load.
Which means (I think)
you get better around 2 weeks after infection and the viral load decreases steadily from this point.
So you might still have virus in your discharge a bit after "you feel better"/ your body starts producing antibodies against the virus.
You're also able to spread it if it's on a surface and you touch it and then you move it somewhere.
