CONT

Maintenant qu'un plus grand nombre de pays ont enregistré de nombreux cas et analysé les modes de transmission, des études récentes prouvent que les personnes infectées peuvent transmettre le virus avant même qu'elles ne présentent de symptômes. C'est ce que nous appelons la transmission présymptomatique.
