I am a teacher. I have been in contact with someone at work who has recently tested positive for COVID. Both of us wore masks and were socially distanced but he worked on my computer. Should I get tested? My school is suggesting I do.
If a person has covid, do their germs survive out from their body when they took off their mask for 10 seconds but no symptoms/talking? Im really scared bc we need to take school photos and everyone takes off mask for 10 secs?
