CAN CORONA VIRUS BE SPREAD BY PEOPLE WITH NO SYMPTOMS ?

Can corona virus be spread by people with no symptoms ?

Can a truly asymptomatic person transmit this infection to others? How often does that occur and to what extent is that driving the current epidemic?

the virus was transmitted from someone with no symptoms to other people. After that folks that were close contacts of the traveler from China, who were still in Germany developed some signs and symptoms of infection in it it had been found that they too were infected with this corona virus. After the report came out it appeared to be discovered that folks that were involved the creation of this report actually never spoke with the individual who came down with the infection directly. After some deeper digging it turns out that the individual who flew in from China to Germany indeed had symptoms and it was reported that she had some muscle aches and pains and wasn't feeling that well and was even taking some medications to suppress her fevers. With social media in everybody's palms you know there there always as the potential for the circulation and of course the amplification of misinformation and pseudoscience, so I think it's a good idea to pick a few reputable sources and stick with a few reputable sources.

There is certainly is a tremendous need for data and of course high quality data, and this data can certainly help medical and scientific teams prepare to treat patients and it also is helpful for guiding policy and screening programs, treatment programs, prevention programs vaccinations, and treatment programs. So the data is extremely important. I think we just need to be mindful that not all data is created the same and of course there can be some uncertainty with data if mistakes happen that's completely okay we just need to be ready to correct them quickly. In general and we're dealing with respiratory infections it's usually the case that people who have symptoms people who are coughing for example are just more likely to transmit the infection from one person to another.

I also think we've to recollect that symptoms are often very broad, some people can have symptoms and be very very sick. But we're also hearing about people at the far more mild end of the spectrum with symptoms that they do not even got to seek medical aid because their symptoms are more of a nuisance rather than requiring hospitalization. One of the concerns is it'd be challenging to regulate a plague if people are walking around with mild symptoms transmitting the infection because it's hard to seek out those individuals. It's hard to identify them and isolate them or prevent them from spreading the infection to others.
