Yes.
Some useful informational links (may have been posted B4, but if so I missed them):
https://www.healthline.com/health/coronavirus-symptoms
(and how some symptoms are different from cold or flu)
https://www.livescience.com/coronavirus-sheds-early-in-disease.html
(Mild cases may shed more early on in the course of the disease)

(Info. on “most likely” routes of transmission)
Thanks for the links!!
from your live science link, viral load builds rapidly from time of contact until around day 5, but slacks off once the virus embeds in the lower lung/other organs?
:
“ “peak concentrations were reached before Day 5 and were more than 1,000 times higher” than those seen in SARS patients, “
“Many people may be at their most infectious when exhibiting only mild, cold-like symptoms.”
