Asymptomatic patients are known to have a disease or other medical condition without no symptoms or evidence of illness or abnormality.
Asymptomatic infection or disease is in the body but without the occurrence of symptoms. Many viruses can infect humans without making us sick, and how they do that is one of biology’s deepest mysteries. It many pose danger because it put the patient at huge risk, imagine having a deadly infection but you don’t know simply because you aren’t sick or showing symptoms. Worst even, if it’s a transmittable infection, you’d be putting a while lots of other people at huge risk.
It is very dangerous, especially to people around them. Taking for example; people who have coronavirus infections but do not show symptoms fall into two categories: There are presymptomatic individuals, who don’t have symptoms at the time they are tested but go on to develop them a few days later; and asymptomatic individuals, who remain symptomless throughout the course of the infection. And emerging data show that a lot more people than previously thought fit into these two groups.
