and I have seen numerous married couples admitted at the same time for Covid. I have seen countless examples of it infecting households. We are talking about the statistical probability of 111 high risk people being asymptomatic and then not giving it to anyone else. This is some BS.
Good for them???
For playing CCP-CYA?

[Italy has a large Chinese population. That is why they were hit so hard early.]
What’s more likely is Italian management and legal Chinese liaisons who travel back and forth to obtain materials (cloth, buttons, sewing machine parts, et al) required for making the final product. Then there’s the huge contingent of Chinese tourists who show up in Italy. In 2018 alone, 3.2m Chinese headed to Italy to take in the sights.
Oh, for Pete’s sake. Milan and Northern Italy was a hotbed of Chinese immigration....3 round trip flights a week from Milan to Wuhan. Most young people had left for better lives...older people left. October seems about right.
Nothing new here.
I think the article is saying the study participants were asymptomatic at the time of the study. These 111 people with SarsCov2 antibodies would have developed the antibodies earlier in 2019 while fighting the virus, and I would guess a lot of them were symptomatic at that time.

It’s to die for...

You forgot the Modena balsamic reduction. That’s essential. Or... is it Moderna?
I think there’s about 6 “sauces” now.
Some are best if put on twice...
I wouldn’t be surprised if it hasn’t been around in some form since fall/late 2019 but then in early 2020 mutated someplace maybe like near a fish-market.
I know several families who in 2020 one member sickened and was found positive, but the rest of their families then either tested positive/asymptomatic or tested negative.
I also know many folks incl yours truely who experienced unusual mild flu/covid like symptoms sometime between fall 2019-summer 2020 who were never tested at the time.
It isn’t really saying that that is or isn’t the case (read the final paragraph). It raises more questions than it has answered but, of course ChiCom propaganda has latched onto this as irrefutable proof that this virus didn’t originate in the Wuhan virology lab. They have their agents all over the internet infusing this story into their narrative. There was at least one here on FR even a few weeks ago. It was a brand new poster who was obviously Chinese that was subtly introducing this narrative to us all. I have seen similar agents on Twitter of course. I can probably find its post.
Lots of people think they may have had it earlier than the official date but I have yet to see antibody testing that confirms it. I’m an ER nurse and all the nurses including me had something around October-November but there has been no antibody testing to confirm it and some of those same people went on to get Covid. And the fact remains, there isn’t going to be a big lapse in time between the actual moment this virus “hits the beach” and the time in which it has moved into the interior as an epidemic/pandemic. We have seen how transmissible and contagious it is. 111 people aren’t going to be walking around with it, not showing any signs/symptoms of illness and then, miraculously, not transmit it to a whole lot of other people. This is a coverup. The Chinese have even infiltrated FR to spread this narrative. I have the post in my history.
[There is a very large Chinese community in Italy. They travel between China and Italy often on business. It’s not unreasonable to expect that the virus came in with some of that business community travel. ]
Line workers in the garment trade are probably illegal aliens trafficked there at great expense (tens of thousands of dollars each). These workers don’t travel to China and back to Italy, because the Italy leg costs just as much the second time around.
In theory, Italian management and legal resident Chinese liaisons who travel back and forth to obtain materials (cloth, buttons, sewing machine parts, et al) required for making the final product might be a factor. However, you gotta figure the number might be in the thousands per year, a rounding error compared to the millions of Chinese tourists checking off items on their itineraries.

It only fails the ‘smell test’ if one assumes that the virus can be spread by the asymptomatic.
It’s very possible that the idea of asymptomatic spread was started by those who ‘in an abundance of caution’ didn’t know if it was possible but wanted to be as safe as possible.
Considering the veterinary world has been battling strains of COVID in the farm animals for at least 100 years.
And, if they did, there's no way they aren't going to transmit it to hundreds, if not thousands, of other people.
And that being the case, there is NO WAY that 111 asymptomatic carriers had Covid in September and the Italian epidemic didn't begin until February 21st.
After the first case of Covid on February 21st, it only took 1 month for Italy to have over 5,000 cases and 560 deaths. How would they have 111 cases in September and then not have any cases or deaths for another 5-6 months? It's impossible.
This is a ChiCom coverup.

A computer simulation proves very little. You can make a simulation say anything depending upon the inputs.
“A mass screening programme of more than 10 million residents of Wuhan, China, performed after SARS-CoV-2 was brought under control, has identified 300 asymptomatic cases of covid-19, none of which was infectious.”

It remains highly unlikely that 111 high risk individuals would develop antibodies and no symptoms. It is equally improbable that in the same test group, there are no symptomatic individuals reported. That seems “a little too convenient. And finally, it is highly improbable that you would have this large group of infected people in September and not have any signs of the epidemic until Feb. 21 when you consider how quickly it escalated between Feb. 21 and March 24. Covid had spread to 5,100 people and killed 560 people in that first month. Why didn’t we see anything between September and February? Because it’s a cover up.
