QUESTIONABLE: There are some degrees of separation here. Depends on if you were both wearing masks appropriately and had social distancing. Of course also depends on whether that person id positive. If really concerned can quarantine for a few days and find out.

COVID 19: You would be considered a higher risk for COVID 19 if the person you were in direct contact with was COVID 19 positive. If the other 2 individuals only were together the same day that you met with individual #2, the chance of you becoming infected would be exceedingly low. This is because it would usually take at least 2 days for the person to actually develop an infection.
