Fact-checking is tricky, and I made a mistake. If I am reading the right table, and reading it correctly, only six of the nine patients were asymptomatic, and three of them are noted for ground glass changes (the first three in my list). So Twitter says and the first source shows three out of six, which is not "more than half" to nit-pick, but mainly the sample size is ridiculous. I think the worse crime is The Atlantic using this to imply harm to young people, when the youngest case in the study was 56 years old.There are now 3 series of lung CT scans in people who were asymptomatic. More than half of these patients show distinct GGO abnormalities consistent w/ #COVID19
