Answer is Latent period.
The latent period is the lag time between exposure to a disease causing agent such as infectious organism and the onset of the disease the organism causes.
This is different from the incubation period which is the time lag from acquiring the infection to the onset of symptoms.
If the latent period is shorter than the incubation period then the individual becomed infectious before getting symptoms. This will help spread infection fastly.
If the latent period is longer than the incubation period, then people become infe tious only afyer the symptoms start.
