I just wasnt comfortable. what would do?
I definitely would not have allowed them to use my bathroom. But then, I would have told them they could not enter the house without masks on, and to please be aware that my bathroom was off-limits and I hoped they wouldn’t mind using the one near the pool. Letting them know upfront would have taken away some of the discomfort afterwards.

COVID-19 has been found in fecal matter. It can contaminate everything you have in the bathroom, not just the toilet area, and they have shown that getting contamination from breathing it in can be a concern for at least 14 minutes.

I just wouldn’t have taken that chance, especially if I were to be having a surgery soon.
Stay safe, and good luck on your surgery.
