https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/transmission.... Some spread might be possible before people show symptoms; there have been reports of this occurring with this new coronavirus, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.

page not found. Presumably this one?

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/transmission...

It's worth noting that this document does not make any claim that it cannot spread prior to symptoms. It says this:

" - People are thought to be most contagious when they are most symptomatic (the sickest). - Some spread might be possible before people show symptoms; there have been reports of this occurring with this new coronavirus, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads."

Note, I did also not say it was impossible but very unlikely. Perhaps that is too strong, but it what I was told.
