One in Four Coronavirus Patients Have NO Symptoms, The Virus Will Be 'With Us' For The Next TWO YEARS

The director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says as many as one in four coronavirus patients in the US are asymptomatic.

Dr Robert Redfield told NPR this probably explains how cases continue to spread across the country even as strict social distancing measures are enacted. 

In the US, there are more than 189,000 confirmed cases of the virus - but federal health officials believe the numbers are much higher.
