COVID 19: Were you both wearing a mask? Was the interaction shorter than 15 minutes? Was the physical contact brief? Were you at least 6 feet apart after a brief contact? Were you in an enclosed space our outdoors? I don't know if you have been infected with COVID 19. If you were outdoors, were both masked, it was a very brief interaction during which almost all of it was socially distamced - less

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.
