Thanks much I will pass info onGary: It is always a risk. The highest risk is touching people or surfaces in public. You just must assume that everyone has it. If she used universal precaution plus everyone wears a mask, her is risk much less. Not a single patient has caught this working as a medical provider or nurse in my region (to this point). Nearly all patients that I have traced caught COVID through physical contact from a loved one or friend and not a coworker.
Personally, I wear a mask, wash diligently, remove my clothes before going home, and change clothing in my garage at home. I am very protecting of myself and my family but I still will go home. My family visits me and I am not worried about them catching it.
Suggestions reiterated:
- Wear a mask at all times - to protect others and hopefully this Is the standard in her worksite.
- Never touch your face, nose, mouth, or eyes without washing your hands first.
- Wash you hands after touching 2.
- Change clothes before coming home or before entering house.
- Wash your hands, wash your hands, washing your hands.
- If you can’t do 5, use Purell.
Stay well
