Presymptomatic, asymptomatic and post-symptomatic transmission of SARS-CoV-2: joint British Infection Association (BIA), Healthcare Infection Society (HIS), Infection Prevention Society (IPS) and Royal College of Pathologists (RCPath) guidance
2022
Overview
Even in the absence of symptoms, adhere to legislation and guidance regarding measures to reduce the risk of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (such as social distancing, hand hygiene, use of personal protective equipment and ventilation of enclosed spaces). The recommendations based on the evidence we have reviewed give confidence that the things we are all doing such as social distancing, hand washing, wearing face coverings and keeping rooms well ventilated by opening windows are the things that we should be doing to prevent people getting infected with Covid-19. Understanding the risk of transmission according to the index case’s symptom status at the time of exposure of (and potential transmission to) their close contacts is important to allow healthcare workers and the public to take action to protect themselves and others. The main purpose of the recommendations is to inform clinicians, managers and policy makers about SARS-CoV-2 transmission dynamics and to provide evidence-based guidance to prevent and control the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in health and care settings.
