Extended Data Fig. 3 | Viral load for asymptomatic, pre-symptomatic and
symptomatic infections and viral load dynamics relative to the number of
days from symptom onset. a, The median (solid line), the interquartile range
(that is, 25th to 75th percentiles (box)) and the range (that is, minimum to
maximum (whiskers)) of gene E genome equivalent copies per ml (log 10 scale,
y axis) calculated from RT–PCR interpolated values (asymptomatic n = 2 3,
pre-symptomatic n = 5 and symptomatic n = 30). The raw Ct data and the derived
values of the genome equivalent copies are provided in the data set. b, The
median (solid line), the interquartile range (that is, 25th to 75th percentiles
(box)) and the range (that is, minimum to maximum (whiskers)) of gene E
genome equivalent copies per ml (log 10 scale, y axis) versus the number of days
from symptom onset (days, x axis); n = 34 participants. The lines in colour join
measurements from the same participant. The solid lines identify the four
participants with sequential viral load measurements for both gene E and gene
RdRp. c, The median (solid line), the interquartile range (that is, 25th to 75th
percentiles (box)) and the range (that is, minimum to maximum (whiskers)) of
RdRp genome equivalent copies per ml (log 10 scale, y axis) calculated from
RT–PCR interpolated values (asymptomatic n = 26, pre-symptomatic n = 9 and
symptomatic n = 27). The raw Ct data and the derived values of genome
equivalent copies are provided in the data set. d, The median (solid line), the
interquartile range (that is, 25th to 75th percentiles (box)) and the range (that
is, minimum to maximum (whiskers)) of RdRp genome equivalent copies per ml
(log 10 scale, y axis) versus the number of days from symptom onset (days, x
axis); n = 28 participants. The lines in colour join measurements from the same
participant. The solid lines identify the four participants with sequential viral
load measurements for both gene E and gene RdRp.
