Symptom-Free Infected People Spreading Covid At An Alarming Rate

Description

Experts are warning that at least half of COVID-19 cases seen globally may have come from asymptomatic carriers. Symptom-free infected people are unknowingly spreading the virus to others according to a new study. Nearly one in four cases of virus spread involve infected people who remain symptom-free. The findings of the study highlight the importance of social distancing, mask-wearing, and hand-washing. The study co-author said: "To control the pandemic, we must address the 'silent pandemic' of spread from persons without symptoms".
