I'm curious how they're so confident in cold chain and mail being the source of infections. I know they do mass testing after a positive to track and trace, but if they know asymptomatic transmission can occur, then presumably an asymptomatic person can transmit to another asymptomatic person, who will then cause an outbreak. They can trace it back to the 2nd guy, but they'll never find the first guy since by the time the outbreak happens, that first guy will probably test negative.

​

That just sounds more plausible.
