"The latest studies show that, broadly speaking, up to 80 per cent of cases might be asymptomatic. So, we're only picking up a select few individuals. And so, we haven't got a great understanding at this moment in time what's actually going on in the population. And it's very vital for us to have this understanding in order to basically, again, limit transmission and thereby spread of the virus through he population."
