Title: Estimating the latent period of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) Cord-id: ni5aj5pb Document date: 2021_1_1
ID: ni5aj5pb
Snippet: Using detailed exposure information on COVID-19 cases, we estimated the mean latent period to be 5.5 days (95% confidence interval: 5.1-5.9 days), shorter than the mean incubation period (6.9 days). Laboratory testing may allow shorter quarantines since 95% of COVID-19 cases shed virus within 10.6 days (95%CI: 9.6-11.6) of infection.
