COVID 19: That is worrisome. Are you going to get tested? A person who is 64 with severe diabetes (although I don't know if the amputations were due diabetes) is at significantly higher risk for more severe illness.

Avoid exposing the: diabetic. If you were exposed just a couple of days ago, you may not be shedding the virus yet. However, keep at a safe distance from the person diabetic person. Wear a mask and have the diabetic wear a mask. As much as possible keep away from the diabetic as s/he is at most risk. Practice hand hygiene and have the diabetic so the same. Get tested and repeat the test in 7-10 days. Be healthy.
