In other words, 1 asymptomatic person would need to encounter about 140 people INSIDE A HOUSE for them to infect another. The chance of infection when in larger areas (e.g., stores) and particularly when outside is probably far less, to the extent that you may need to encounter thousands of people before infecting another. https://www.worlddoctorsalliance.com/blog/asymptomatic-ten-million-residents-wuhan/ Fri, 11 Dec 2020 17:26:44 +0000 https://www.worlddoctorsalliance.com/blog/asymptomatic-ten-million-residents-wuhan/ Post-lockdown SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening in nearly ten million residents of Wuhan, China shows no asymptomatic transmission.
