What about asymptomatic persons?

What about asymptomatic persons?
**********************************************************
In Florida, up to 80% of drive-through PCR “positive cases” are asymptomatic. According to the above article, recovered (not sick, not contagious) people can continue to show positive PCR for 12 WEEKS!
“What about asymptomatic persons?”
Only mention is:
“In a recent study of skilled nursing facility workers followed prospectively for asymptomatic infection, one of 48 infected staff had a nasopharyngeal swab which was weakly positive on a single-passage plaque assay more than 20 days after initial diagnosis; however, the specimen was not subjected to serial passage to demonstrate the presence of replication-competent virus (Quicke et al., 2020).”
(No proof of transmission)
If there was any good proof of asymptomatic transmission, it would probably be in here somewhere.
