    Abstract:

    Except for medical facilities, infected cases without symptom, with different severity of symptoms, and lethal cases are resulted from the interactions between the pathogen and the host. It is necessary to note that the relationship between epidemic untraceable and asymptomatic cases has some values in guiding the prevention and foreseeing the trends of a new outbreak of infectious disease.
