At a time when the numbers of Coronavirus infection increased, it spread among some people that they carried the virus without symptoms, which portends many fears of the virus spreading more widely, according to experts, those infected without symptoms can transmit the infection to others without them realizing.
“Masrawy” tried to come up with an explanation of the extent to which people could be infected with the Coronavirus, without their knowledge and how to discover it.
Study: Half of the new infections were in people without symptoms
In this regard, a recent medical study conducted in three leading American and Canadian universities indicates that scientists discovered that 75% of people suffering from the emerging corona virus may have “silent immunity.”
And a recent medical study, conducted at three leading American and Canadian universities, supported previous studies that warned of the risk of infection transmission by people who do not show symptoms of the disease.
A report by “US News” titled “Silent transmission is the first driver of Corona outbreaks,” stated that half of the new infections with the virus are related to people without symptoms, and that about 48 percent of people who do not show symptoms transmit the infection.
Doctor: The risk of goodwill
On this matter, Dr. Magdy Badran, a member of the Egyptian Society of Allergy and Immunology, explains that it is possible for the Corona virus to enter the body of an individual without feeling and transmit the infection to others, pointing out that this is what happens most often, because of the good will of people and the lack of doubt about those who mix with them And they are without masks, noting that they are considered a clear danger.
Badran added to “Masrawy” that the infection can be transmitted from a person without symptoms through the hands, pointing out that millions touch their faces dozens of times a day, and do not realize that the virus is present on the surfaces all over the world in most of the currently closed places.
Can the infection be detected without symptoms?
And about the symptoms of silent infection, it reveals that it is possible that people carrying the virus do not have any symptoms, which indicates its danger, especially since the infected move freely in society, spread and transmit the virus, and may kill the closest people to them while they do not know.
As for ways to detect the infection of the person who carries the virus without showing symptoms on them, he notes that this cannot happen, especially with no symptoms and no tests, indicating that those people who carry the silent infection often appear as healthy, recovering, and they recover completely without Drugs.
He continued: “There are no visible signs of these infected people, and if we conduct research and this is expensive, we may be shocked by the presence of the virus in millions of people.”
