COVID 19: We wouldn't be able to tell you without knowing if your associate became COVID 19 positive or not. If s/he does - here are the questions to ask yourself. How close was the contact? Less than 6 feet apart? Both wearing mask? Person appear ill at the time? Outdoors or in a poorly ventilated, crowded tight space? Less than ten minutes?

Agree with Dr. F.: Wear a mask, maintain safe distance from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital. Wish you good health!
