asymptomatická inkubační doba


Definition from own experience or research:
incubation period without presenting any symptoms

Example sentence(s):
  • Jedním z důvodů, proč se tak děje, je skutečnost, že nakažený člověk je nejvíce infekční během inkubační doby, tedy v období mezi vniknutím viru do lidského organismu a projevením prvních příznaků nemoci. Až 14 dní (ve výjimečných případech až 21 dní) dlouhá inkubační doba je totiž zpravidla asymptomatická, což znamená, že během ní pacient nemusí pociťovat vůbec žádné příznaky. Pro své okolí ale představuje vysoké riziko. - zdravi.euro.cz
