“…as far as we can tell”. How do we know if we’re not testing enough and have no concept of the actual scale of the outbreak?

Is this another virus that you can contract but never know you have it?

Or like shingles, where the virus lies dormant for years and then activates if the host's immune system gets weak enough, either from age or some other cause. This would make it very hard to trace the initial exposure.
