No need to fear: You just continue living. Help your son to enjoy life, good food, sleep well and do not panic. Infections in children have been described as generally mild. Guidelines suggest to quarantine for the next 14 days so you do not spread the infections. There is importance of not stressing the body so that the body would be able to cope well even if there is infection. If he develops symptoms seek care.
