“A quarter of those who test positive are not infectious”

It is now clear that “20 to 25 percent, that is, about a quarter of those who tested positive, are not infectious,” Weiss told the “Tiroler Tageszeitung” (Wednesday edition). There are several reasons for this, such as the fact that the infections are asymptomatic and the viral load is too low.

Also, the infection could last a few weeks. So it can still be detected, but it is no longer infectious. Another reason is a false positive test. The infectologist advised to reconsider the quarantine management. Politicians and authorities should proceed in a more “differentiated” way and treat asymptomatic patients differently than those with symptoms.
