Kids play in the yard, we all ride bikes (sometimes in Rock Creek) and we may run or walk an extra few miles every few days. Grocery store had been every two weeks, but we may start every week, or at least do pre-order and pick-up from the Farmers Market. We get delivery or pick-up for dinner twice week. I went to the hardware store once, we may go to a garden store, but that's about it. Some risk of exposure for sure, but relatively careful...
We know we've been exposed (found out right after quarantine began) so it's likely we're (are/were?) asymptomatic carriers. We try to act as such and wear masks, sanitize hands... don't want to be jerks getting anyone else sick.
How long have you been told to assume you are asymptomatic carriers? Mot people I know who were exposed were instructed by health professionals to take additional precautions for two weeks, then just revert to the typical social distancing guidelines after that point.
I'm confused on the timeline. If we think we are asymptomatic carriers, are we supposed to act as such for months? How long is someone positive but asymptomatic and capable of transmitting?
