Asymptomatic #2019nCoV infection may be rare, and transmission from an asymptomatic person is very rare with other coronaviruses, as we have seen with MERS. Thus, transmission from asymptomatic cases is likely not a major driver of transmission bit.ly/36QhfKq
The main driver of #2019-nCoV transmission, based on currently available data, is symptomatic cases.
WHO is aware of possible transmission from infected people before they developed symptoms.
