> hides from the immune system (could explain the asymptomatic people) until the right moment when you feel weak after a workout
I'm pretty sure this is what happened to me. I felt fine, did a big workout for the first time in a few weeks, and a few hours later, came down with a low grade fever, which progressed into an illness that very closely tracked the symptoms and timeline of COVID-19.
The good news: I was recovering in a house with my two parents around age 60, and my younger brother. I spent most of the two weeks in my room, trying to avoid any contact, and nobody else in the house got sick (it's been over a month since I recovered, so we're pretty confident of that at this point). So, it's not inevitable that you'll transmit it if you take distancing measures early!
