If half of carriers show no symptoms, thats probably the best explanation as to how it spread so rapidly and completely across the globe.
It's also a reminder that the numbers of infected people that get reported in the news are total BS, and that the number of actual infected is much higher. Until we test everybody, we just can't be certain.
Oddly enough, this might be a silver lining. As the infection spreads, we're getting closer to the point of "herd immunity". Once everyone has the virus in their system, you don't really need to quarantine anymore.
