Meaning These results suggest that with the evolution of mutant strains, the incubation period of COVID-19 decreased gradually from Alpha variant to Omicron variant. Abstract Importance Several studies were conducted to estimate the average incubation period of COVID-19; however, the incubation period...
observed a gradual decrease in the incubation period of COVID-19 from the Alpha vari- ant to the Omicron variant with the evolution of mutant strains [16]. Madewell et al. observed that serial inter- val estimates for Delta and Omicron were shorter than ancestral SARS-CoV-2 variants, ...

Cases who reported past SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19 vaccination were excluded since these events may alter the duration of the incubation period and were more common for cases infected with the Delta variant compared to others. Incubation periods longer than 15 days were excluded since ...
The usual incubation period (the time between infection and symptom onset) ranges from one to 14 days; it is most commonly five days.As an example of uncertainty, the estimate of the fraction of people with COVID-19 who lost their sense of smell was initially 30% and later fell to 15%...
