@fascinatorfun @Ellaj26927542 Sure- here it is: https://t.co/xxt0eqpd38 I didn't realise the ONS was doing repeat testing at all - I will look into this. I don't think it's mentioned in the paper, though, but do correct me if I'm wrong.

76% of English #COVID19-positive infections asymptomatic? For n=36k ONS data, only 14% of those w/ specific potential "diagnostic" symptoms were positive @IndependentSage @devisridhar @lizgrant360 https://t.co/wSeyX0vI4n https://t.co/5WonAIerYW

Vigtige UK data: 3/4 havde ikke symptomer -testning helt essentielt for at begrænse smitte https://t.co/e3ettVkO53

Here's the study: https://t.co/4FeoBpNFP6 "It is estimated that the specificity [of the SARS-CoV-2 test used in this survey] is above 95%." and "An assumption behind our interpretation is that test specificity of SARS-CoV-2 test is very close to 100%."

@j4 That number is on day of test. The paper itself speculates about what is really going on: I think they conclude that it's a mixture of false positives, true asymptomatics, and early detections. https://t.co/OgDaUVEYfK

UK data: 75% of People with #SARS-CoV-2 Infection seems Asymptomatic. A widespread testing program is needed to capture “silent” transmission and potentially prevent and reduce future outbreaks. #Covid_19 @hugodejonge https://t.co/a10ghNBPeR

Data from the UK ONS COVID study suggest that asymptomatic cases may be a significant driver of transmission: https://t.co/NlKXFUCGBw

86% of people who tested Covid positive didn't have the specific virus symptoms (cough, fever, loss of taste/smell), finds @ucl study Indicates we need to change our approach, expand our testing to catch asymptomatic transmission & reduce future outbr

Probably an underestimate but sobering paper with big implications. One of the studies I am involved in has weekly testing. So far all positive results have come from the screening and none from patients presenting with symptoms. https://t.co/7bWs49qYlv

@MichaelYeadon3 @AlistairHaimes Symptoms aren't related to "infection", or "INFECTION ISN'T RELATED TO A POSITIVE PCR TEST!!" when you're using an unsuitable test for surveillance in a population where disease prevalence is low? https://t.co/acnzXu1HCa

75% of people actively shedding the virus are asymptomatic! Contract tracing is nearly useless. It's all about universal masking, social distancing, and hand hygiene. https://t.co/LLoCiq8rw1

Helpful analysis but we know people test positive & transmit prior to symptom development. Asymptomatic at time of testing ≠ asymptomatic infection "Silent transmission" is particularly a problem at low incidence less so in rapid growth. https://t.
