Five asymptomatic cases found in state quarantine

By The Nation

 

 

Five new cases of Covid-19 were reported over a 24-hour period, the government’s Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) said on Sunday.

 

It has been 90 days without domestic cases since May.

 

All the new cases are asymptomatic. They included a 41-year-old woman who returned from India on August 8 and was found positive on her third test and a 45-year-old woman who had returned from UK on August 10, who was positive on her second test. Three patients -- two women aged 26 and 29 and a man, 53, had returned from Oman on August 17. They tested positive on the first day of the quarantine period.

 

Meanwhile, one patient was discharged after full recovery.

 

As of August 23, the total number of confirmed cases in the country stood at 3,395 (458 in state quarantine) -- 117 are under treatment, 3,221 have recovered and been discharged, and there have been 58 deaths.

 

Globally, the total number of confirmed cases rose to 23.3 million, up by 269,000 on Saturday; 15.9 million have recovered while deaths stood at 808,000.

 

Thailand ranks 117th for most cases in the world. The US has the highest number (5.8 million), followed by Brazil (3.58 million) and India ( 3 million).

Asymptomatic

I wonder if the CPR test can identify if the virus is active, but the infected person's immune system is not reacting to it (no symptoms) as opposed to the possibility that the test is picking up remnants of the virus post the person's immune system having successfully dealt with it.  

This might clarify the high numbers of persons testing positive but not showing symptoms and/or not getting seriously ill.

Anyone got info on this or links to research done?

The test has been shown to give false positives and false negatives, and the test does not prove there is an infection as stated by the inventor of the PCR test, Kary Mullis.  Mullis regarded the PCR as inappropriate to detect a viral infection.
