TIME BETWEEN AN INFECTION AND THE ONSET OF DISEASE SYMPTOMS
Incubation time; Incubatory period; Latent time; Latency time; Clinical latency; Extrinsic incubation period; Infectious disease incubation period
  • In some diseases, as depicted in this diagram, the latency period is shorter than the incubation period. After the latency period (but prior to clinical infection) the infected person can transmit the disease without signs of any symptoms. Such infection is called subclinical infection.

Incubation period

Incubation period (also known as the latent period or latency period) is the time elapsed between exposure to a pathogenic organism, a chemical, or radiation, and when symptoms and signs are first apparent. In a typical infectious disease, the incubation period signifies the period taken by the multiplying organism to reach a threshold necessary to produce symptoms in the host.

While latent or latency period may be synonymous, a distinction is sometimes made whereby the latent period is defined as the time from infection to infectiousness. Which period is shorter depends on the disease. A person may carry disease, such as Streptococcus in the throat, without exhibiting any symptoms. Depending on the disease, the person may or may not be contagious during the incubation period.

During latency, an infection is subclinical. With respect to viral infections, in incubation the virus is replicating. This is in contrast to viral latency, a form of dormancy in which the virus does not replicate. An example of latency is HIV infection. HIV may at first have no symptoms and show no signs of AIDS, despite HIV replicating in the lymphatic system and rapidly accumulating a large viral load. People with HIV in this stage may be infectious.
