(55,736 posts)40. This may be one of those 5%
of Covid infections which can't be traced back to anyone even though you did all the right things to prevent it. I haven't had anyone in my apt since June when my dog died. My carpet needs cleaning but it will have to wait, like going to my dentist for cleaning. I got tested in Aug and got the results back within 48 hours (when I had a fever for a week, but no cough). I had self isolated and couldn't figure out where I could have been infected since I always masked up the few times I went out to buy groceries. I still don't know what I had but it wasn't Covid.

I hope you are wearing a mask in the home now. You need to protect yourself as much as you can.
