The correct answer is to seek the advise of your medical professional.

Personally, I would be more conscious of my mask wearing and distancing while I wait four days before getting a test. I would absolutely expect it to be negative but I would get tested just in case.


- Just being in proximity to the coworker with Covid does not mean the member contracted it
- It takes more than a minute for the member who had the contact to become contagious
- Being in proximity to someone who was in proximity to someone who had the virus does not mean you will become infected
- It takes a few days (3, 4, ?) for the virus to build to a high enough level to be detected by the test.
