detected In five percent of the test group, then, could the Virus for up to a month. This does not mean, however, that these patients were still contagious. Therefore, the researchers concluded that the PCR Test does not show even viral components, but these are infectious.

virus excretion in the first disease of the week, the highest

The test evaluations of 73 Covid showed-19-patients in a local study in Singapore. Just when the viral load in the later course of the disease was low, could be isolated in spite of a positive result, no living, and thus infectious Virus, and is cultivated – from the 11. Day of the disease.

This is also confirmed by results of German studies, the were able to prove that the virus excretion in the first week of the disease is very high. The cough expectoration it took between 10. and 11.
