Should I still isolate myself after a positive test? Is it ok to do my own shopping (with a mask) or should I call someone? Do I still wait for a negative test or simply to be free of symptoms? Since people around me don’t really talk about Covid anymore and my country doesn’t have any guidelines in place, I’d be interested in your takes. I don’t wanna be a d*ck to others but would also rather not overshoot and lock myself up at home for two weeks like in the early days. (I hope this doesn’t count as asking for medical advice.)
Edit: Thanks y’all. Guess I just needed to hear that even though everyone has been talking of “after Covid”, the situation hasn’t fundamentally changed despite our lives having normalized. I’ll be cancelling plans and staying home.
Even if you just have common cold you shouldn’t be going out and infecting other people.
That last line is just a petty excuse for you not wanting to be a decent and responsible person.
As I said: I limit social interaction to the most minimal. And from what I‘ve understood during the pandemic, my precautions should reduce possible infection by over 95%. And at least where I live there are no signs that Covid poses any bigger risk to public health than the common flu (where I also get my shots and behave accordingly after living through a full blown infection).
As I said: Not responsible.
