The study was done by CMMID (Centre for the Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases) at London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
They also built up a interactive airport screening effectiveness simulator.
The infected in incubation time being hard to detect at airports was already known, if this study will get reviewed as valid it could make it more clear how much containment measures need to work in advance.
With an incubation time of 6 days the virus is 6 days ahead of any containment based on sympthoms.
Oh no, that makes it much harder to actually and effectively quarantine anyone really.
