COVID 19 concerns: Not sure I understand description. But if driver was COVID 19 positive, both son and grandfather need to quarantine. In South Africa, one contacts a medical provider for eval to decide if COVID 19 testing is indicated. You may contact your own medical provider or consider getting telemedicine consult from an on-line provider. You can use one of the free on-line apps check your risk.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Contact your doctor/local hospital, by phone for evaluation and testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Get Covid vaccine. Wish you good health.
