They are mostly asymptomatic and form part of the statistics that determine the number of active cases in the country. Under the four-phase recovery plan, the number of daily cases has to hit 500, and 60% of the population have to have received two doses of the vaccine, before economic activity can resume to pre-Covid-19 levels. If phase two of the recovery plan can begin only after daily infections dip to the 4,000 target, many businesses are going to fold.
