A member asked:
How many other people could just one sick covid-19 person possibly infect with novel coronavirus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many: A "super spreader" is someone who infects at least 10 other people. There is a fairly famous case of a British businessman who spread the COVID 19 virus to at least 11 people (in varying countries).
