Abstract
We profiled cases with nonrespiratory symptoms (NRS) and asymptomatic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infections assessed within Mexico City’s Epidemiological Surveillance System. Initially asymptomatic or NRS cases have decreased risk of adverse outcomes compared with cases with respiratory symptoms. Comorbidity and age influence symptom development in initially asymptomatic cases.

Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Additional limitations include nonassessment of atypical SARS-CoV-2 symptoms which might occur amongst otherwise asymptomatic cases, particularly in older adults, and the lack of systematized sampling, which does not allow for an accurate estimation for the rates of asymptomatic cases in Mexico City. Our results highlight the need to systematize definitions of asymptomatic cases and extend testing by contact tracing to detect asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infections as one of the mitigations strategies to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in Mexico City and Mexico in general.
