We report early findings from COVID-19 cases in Brunei suggesting a remarkably high proportion of asymptomatic (12%) and presymptomatic (30%) cases. This proportion was even higher in imported cases. These have implications for measures to prevent onward local transmission and should prompt reconsideration of current testing protocols and safe de-escalation of social distancing measures.
我们报告了文莱的 COVID-19 病例的早期发现,表明无症状(12%)和症状前(30%)病例比例极高。输入性病例中的这一比例更高。这些对预防本地传播的措施具有影响,应该促使重新考虑当前的检测方案,并安全地逐步放宽社会隔离措施。
