  • Health officials believe some people were passing on their infections for up to six weeks. This long asymptomatic incubation period also renders airport screening ineffective. The New York Times

besimptomis inkubacinis laikotarpis


Definition from ULAC:
Inkubacinis laikotarpis (t. y. laikotarpis nuo užsikrėtimo iki simptomų atsiradimo) yra nuo 2 iki 14 dienų. Nors žmonės dažniausiai būna užkrečiami, kai pasireiškia simptomai, įtariama, kad kai kurie žmonės gali perduoti virusą dar iki simptomų atsiradimo.
