Five rebrightenings (as in 2009) have been observed:
2021 February 6-7, 9-10, 13-14, 17-18, and 27-28.
No observations are available for February 23 and 24
(so another rebrightening may have been missed).

Clear skies,
Patrick

The 2009 supermaximum of VX Fornacis was followed by five
rebrightenings.
