Hey everyone

So a person that I was around for a few hours tested positive for Covid yesterday. We weren’t wearing masks. I was no less than 4 feet away from him the whole time. He didn’t cough or laugh or sneeze or anything that projects water droplets. I didn’t touch anything he touched or anything like that.

I am probably fine right? I don’t feel any symptoms but I visited my parents and sisters the day after I saw him and I’m worried that I gave it to them.

I just need reassurance that I didn’t get my family sick or put them in danger.

Another thing is he is a healthcare worker so he gets tested often which is why I was around him in the first place because I knew that he gets tested and has to be careful

So please someone help reassure me

You could call your doctor to see if you could get tested in a few days. Also let the others know your situation. I tested positive several weeks ago, i was with some friends that I spent alot is time with. 2 also got sick and the other 2 showed no symptoms. Don't feel guilt. You didn't know, hope it didn't spread and be as careful as you can, thats all u can do.

I let my boss know. I’m planning on getting tested just to calm my anxiety about it. Thank you for the response!

99% of people recover from covid. Unless you got health issues.

You’ll be okay. 💗

Of course. Times are tough right now! But what they don’t tell you or what you don’t hear is how many people actually recover from covid.

But there’s many who do recover. More recover than those who are dead

Hi- I have a friend, I was with her almost the whole day on Sunday, we were talking and after 2 days I heard that she had COVID symptoms. She was sick for almost 3 weeks. She didn’t go to the doctor for testing but her son was positive. I was fine and didn’t have any symptoms.

You can call your doctor and ask if you can be tested in a few days. Praying for you for peace and protection as well as for your family. Please keep us posted.
