You have a normal temperature. If this is your only concern then relax.

First of all you need to have an exposure that means that you need to have a close contact with an individual for approximately more than 15 minutes unprotected meaning without mask within a distance of 6 ft that also account for a long time after that an incubation period of two to five days, but can go also up to 10 days if you develop symptoms fever, cough, short of breath.
