Re: 2 test positive for COVID at Plymouth
Asymptomatic :-
COVID-19 alert
Common questions
Can asymptomatic patients transmit COVID-19?
Available evidence from contact tracing reported by countries suggests that asymptomatically infected individuals are much less likely to transmit the virus than those who develop symptoms.
A subset of studies and data shared by some countries on detailed cluster investigations and contact tracing activities have reported that asymptomatically-infected individuals are much less likely to transmit the virus than those who develop symptoms.
Comprehensive studies on transmission from asymptomatic patients are difficult to conduct, as they require testing of large population cohorts and more data are needed to better understand and quantified the transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2. WHO is working with countries around the world, and global researchers, to gain better evidence-based understanding of the disease as a whole, including the role of asymptomatic patients in the transmission of the virus.

I was a asymptomatic when I returned from North Italy on 25 Feb - symptoms were pronounced 10 March onwards (with rest of family).

Re: 2 test positive for COVID at Plymouth
All before everything including the Cheltenham Festival!!
Only advice was against certain areas of Italy - not ours.
Wife - NHS Sent home 2 days after going back for 2 weeks.
Daughter (teacher) - week
Daughter (City) - 2 weeks
Me (taxi driver) - carried on until 10 March - stopped before symptoms became apparent. Although in hindsight the fatigue building up to then wasn’t right!
