Question about Scourge Hook: Gift of Pain

In the description box of Scourge Hook: Gift of Pain, for its second effect it says: "The first time a survivor is healed, they suffer a 16% penalty to healing and reparing actions until injured again."

Does this mean "the first time" ever (ie won't activate on a second rescue from a scourge hook), or "the first time" each time a survivor rescued from a scourge hook is healed (ie can be trigger twice for each survivor)?

    Basically how it works is:

    Hook survivor on gift of pain hook -> They become mangled/hemmoraged -> If they are healed after this point, they are given the 16% debuff until injured again -> Once injured again, the debuff goes away until rehooked

    So to answer your question, it's the first time any survivor who was hooked on the scourge hook is healed. The debuff resets and can be re-applied once they are injured or downed by any means. Obviously this means you can only apply it twice per survivor since they die on the third hook.
