   What is an asymptomatic carrier?

   • An asymptomatic carrier ( healthy carrier or just carrier) is a person or other animal which has become infected with a pathogen, but who shows no signs or symptoms. Although unaffected by the pathogen themselves, carriers can transmit it to others.

   What is the elusive nature of asymptomatic carriers?

   • The elusive nature of asymptomatic carriers has three important implications for understanding and controlling infectious diseases with carriers. First, incidence data typically only reflect symptomatic cases of infection, making the true extent of asymptomatic carriage for particular diseases difficult to assess.

   How do asymptomatic carriers contribute to the spread of infectious disease?

   • For infectious pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, some hosts may carry the pathogen and transmit it to others, yet display no symptoms themselves. These asymptomatic carriers contribute to the spread of disease but go largely undetected and can therefore undermine efforts to control transmission.

   Why do asymptomatic carriers undermine efforts to control transmission?

   • These asymptomatic carriers contribute to the spread of disease but go largely undetected and can therefore undermine efforts to control transmission. Understanding the natural history of carriage and its relationship to disease is important for the design of effective interventions to control transmission.
