asymptomatic? Can't think of another literally had a pharmacy tell me it passes from breathing and kids don't spread it as far that's why kids don't transmit it

hiv is asymptomatic by definition. Once it is no longer asymptomatic it is called aids

Every disease is asymptomatic and contagious during its dormant period (2 days - 4 weeks for most virus' and bacteria and that is by person not disease, some people never get symptoms or naturally are immune but still spread which is why we have not been able to outright kill everything still around)

HPV is asymptomatic in men

many more specifics can be given but most, if not all, diease is asymptomatic in at least some people with a natural resistance or natural immunity

Many are not. Many viruses are so perfectly adapted to the human host that they are dormant in almost the whole population (herpes, for example). Everybody of us has maybe six different dormant viruses. Only sometimes they become symptomatic and spread (herpes blisters, for example).

SARS-CoV-2 seems to have no asymptomatic spread. While testing 10 million people 4 weeks after the lockdown in Wuhan, they have found 300 asymptomatic cases. There were no positive tests amongst the close contacts of the asymptomatic cases. The study is peer reviewed and there are British universities involved:
