You might be fine, but if you are asymptomatic, you can directly harm or kill others and not even know it. No, this is a rumour that was long since debunked.

You might be fine, but if you are asymptomatic, you can directly harm or kill others and not even know it. No, this is a rumour that was long since debunked. Asymptomatic transmission does not exist. Basically no cases have been traced back to that and the WHO no longer supports the concept. WHO officials months ago pointed out this was "very rare" (read: doesn't happen, considering how noisy testing and contact tracing are). This story summarises: https://bgr.com/2020/08/31/coronavirus-asymptomatic-spread-risk-study-china/ https://bgr.com/2020/08/31/coronavirus-asymptomatic-spread-r... They (the WHO) distinguish this from "pre-symptomatic transmission" which means you will develop symptoms in a day or two, but are infectious a bit before that happens. This happens with many viruses. It's entirely normal. In the UK right now flu is twice as deadly as COVID, same is true of many other places. So you have a choice. You can never go out again in case you are about to come down with flu and un-knowingly, via a long and complex chain of events, kill a disabled child. Or you can accept that there's nothing unusual currently happening beyond media and government hysteria, and go to a restaurant before they're all gone.
