Many people who have contracted the Corona virus get upset when they have not been in contact with anyone infected with the virus, while it is known to everyone that Corona viruses are transmitted from one person to another.
We all know that the virus is transmitted at a close distance or as the World Health Organization (WHO) says, a conversation distance, and here are the various factors that help in the rapid reproduction of the virus, according to timesofindia.
Pre-symptomatic cases
People with corona are usually most contagious 2-3 days before symptoms appear, and the condition in which a person first becomes infected with the virus and develops symptoms later is called presymptomatic.
An asymptomatic person around is as contagious as a person with symptoms and able to spread the infection.
short range
If you are within a short range of a person infected with the Corona virus, you will become infected easily, and Corona viruses spread through small liquid particles from the coughing, sneezing or breathing of an infected person within a short distance.
Once a person comes into contact with liquid particles in the air, viruses enter the uninfected person’s body through the eyes, nose, or mouth, and the chances of contracting this infection increase when you are in a poorly ventilated or crowded indoor space.
Symptom carriers
It is said that anyone who has corona but does not show symptoms does not show symptoms, these same people are not aware that they carry the virus inside them, so if you are in contact with someone who carries the virus without symptoms, you will get the virus and the manifestations of infection will depend on the immune response that your body provokes, you will not Having an infection can leave you asymptomatic without symptoms.
A person with corona may be contagious 48 hours before symptoms start, and it is possible that people without symptoms are more likely to spread the disease, because they are unlikely to be isolated and may not adopt behaviors designed to prevent the spread.
A study published in JAMA Network Open says that one in four infections may be transmitted by individuals with asymptomatic infections.
less test
While testing data is the tip of the iceberg in determining corona infection, testing lower to zero due to many factors is the invisible but worrisome vector.
Because most symptoms of corona overlap with those of the common cold, many people forego testing and take common cold remedies, and by the time the infection subsides in an infected person, the virus has already been transmitted to many people through the air and surfaces.
In the case of asymptomatic carriers, only lab tests can confirm the presence of viruses in them, so if these individuals are not tested, which is likely to happen because they are asymptomatic, they can silently transmit the virus to others.
Omicron variable
It does not show any severe symptoms, as is the case with other variants of Corona, it does not show symptoms in many variants, because of the aggressive nature of this virus in reproduction, it is difficult to escape from it wherever you are abroad.
