I have covid & streptococcus pneumoniae. today is my 5th day quarantined and i still feel quite unwell. my bf started showing symptoms 2 days ago. i am required to go to work tomorrow, but i work near elderly. should i take more time off?

PLEASE DO NOT GO TO WORK! It would be wrong in so many ways: your working could put your elderly charges at risk of death. You can safely be off quarantine only after your symptoms have been gone for at least 24 hours. Follow your doctor's advice about your own treatment. Good luck.
