So here's a good practical question (sorry if it's come up before; I have not read every page but I have read a lot of them). One of my other hobbies is candlepin bowling, our New England version of bowling, which we refer to as REAL bowling up here. Look it up and give it a try when up here sometime, it's a blast. I was in the semi-pro tour this year and it was a blast even though I didn't place too well in the standings. Anyway, my COVID related question :
One of the guys I bowl with on Wednesday and Friday nights tested positive this past Friday after developing mild symptoms on Thursday (runny nose, fever) and being informed that someone at his workplace had been infected. I saw him Wednesday night before he had his test. We and the other teammates were together for a couple hours at the lanes, which is practicing social distancing protocols including spacing out bowlers (leaving open lanes between matches), etc. I couldn't say for sure that I was within 6 feet for more than 15 minutes at a time but it's a good possibility; all of us did wear masks at all times. Most of the time in between our turns (5 frames per turn) we were at separate tables. My questions are 1) should I be self quarantining? (I have been staying home since finding out on Friday) If so, for how long? 2) Should I be concerned? I have moderately severe asthma and diabetes that is poorly controlled. So far as of today no symptoms other than a mild runny nose that comes and goes and just as well could be allergy related. No fever etc.
Thanks.
