An inapparent infection occurs when a susceptible person is exposed to an agent, is consequently infected, but neverdevelops clinical symptoms (subclinical). An inapparent infection may result in immunity - but they may not develop immunity and could even become a carrier.In contrast, an exposed susceptible person may develop symptoms (clinical infection), but later enter a period where they no longer exhibit those symptoms.
