Agreed, "infected does not mean suffering from the virus."

"All it means is that you have tested positive, not that you are in danger, require hospital care or indeed die from the infection." also agreed.

However, if you have tested positive you are a risk to everyone that you come in contact with as you could be passing on an infection that could mean to them that they could be "in danger, require hospital care or indeed die from the infection." This is important as I have seen a criticism, by a medical professional, of a Risk Assessment that had put the risks of the consequences of infection as 'medium' whereas it should be assuming the worst-case individual becoming infected where the risk of the consequence is logically high.

We know someone (in another country) who was tested as positive but with no symptoms (she was in close contact with two family members who were ill and had tested positive) -- her primary concern was that she could have already passed it on to work-mates.


People should behave sensibly and avoid the risk of spreading this nasty virus, that is the only way that we will be able to get back to normal and save airline jobs.
