TL;DR We don’t know, it’s variable case to case, and could be longer than 25 days from symptom onset if you get sick
In patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19, there are cases (Korea, Singapore) of viral RNA detectable up to 25 days after symptom onset. This is not the same as still being infective, so we don’t really know.
In people exposed to SARS-CoV-2, 14 days is an estimation that the vast majority will have developed symptoms by this time (here). However, this doesn’t take into account cases that remain asymptomatic throughout their infection (maybe 15-20% from Diamond Princess data)
