Summary
This study in the journal Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology aimed to determine the extent to which asymptomatic individuals infected with Covid-19 transmitted the disease to other patients and staff on a hospital ward. The authors found that a comprehensive symptoms and signs assessment, in combination with adequate follow-up, allows for a more precise determination of Covid-19 symptoms. The results of the study revealed that asymptomatic infection was quite uncommon amongst adults in this setting.
