Meta-analysis dataset for the following article: A Rapid Review and Meta-Analysis of the Asymptomatic Proportion of PCR-Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 Infections in Community Settings.

These CSV format data enable the calculation of a pooled asymptomatic proportion of PCR-confirmed COVID-19 cases based on available studies (n=21) with methodologically-appropriate design to detect and identify truly asymptomatic cases. The asymptomatic proportion is given as the number of asymptomatic PCR-confirmed infections over the total number of PCR-confirmed infections.

The file also includes the completed PRISMA checklist for this review.
