Visit parents once a week, otherwise don’t go anywhere.

Walk and hike all the time. Frequent take out. Frequent errands. Drive way drinks with neighbors. All of this has gone too far.

Every couple days, sometimes just for starbucks drive through. I am a very antsy person. I find it hard to stay inside. I walk a lot. I find myself grocery shopping once a week at least because I have never done big store runs, so I am not really used to planning for that, and also I really underestimated how much more we would all be eating. I tried to pick up things for neighbors so at least one more person isn't going out. I am healthy and leave limited delivery spots for people who need it. I just spent a ridiculous amount of money at costco so I am hoping that holds. I am not really afraid of getting the virus but I hate how long the lines are everywhere, there is no quick in and out.

We are doing curbside once a week and walking almost everyday. I go into the office once a week to file ( I work at a plumbing company). I do the grocery shopping on my way home. DH is a pipefitter, so he is still working.

In NYC. Haven’t been able to get grocery delivery since mid-March, so I have been to the grocery three times since then. I have been on two walks, but the crowds on the sidewalks on those days (weather has been terrible) actually made it hard to stay 6 ft from others at all times. DH has picked up sandwiches and snacks from a bodega about once a week too.

We go to one of the nearby parks every day. Grocery stores and garden centers a few times a week since I'm spending quite a bit of time in the garden these days. The nanny is out with our youngest for at least four hours a day (weather permitting) in the parks, trails, fields etc.

6 mile running route daily. So that's going 3 miles away from home. Minimal store trips, until yesterday when we went to Costco and dropped $700. Good experience actually, and there were TP and paper towels.

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?


DP but to answer you, CDC says 14 days after exposure to the close contact, with twice daily temperature monitoring.
