Hugs, SAMS, and all the best to you, your daughter and your little granddaughter, and the other two children.
I want to preface this post by saying IANAD, and everything is jmo.
Re: level of exposure, this is interesting and I would be curious as to what
@mickey2942 ,
@10ofRods and
@dixiegirl1035 would say re: whether or not you should be quarantining, with masks and 3 feet. Some relevant aspects/ questions imo, if I may, was it indoors? How big is the room and what is the ventilation like? Any open windows, etc? What type of mask were you both wearing? Also importantly imo, how long was the contact?
One thing I will say, there is no doubt she was infectious at the time of your meeting, if she is positive, based on you saying she started getting ill/exhibiting symptoms that day.
As to the level of viral load, etc., hard to say but IMO, I would err on the side of caution wrt quarantining, especially if it was indoors with poor ventilation. Jmo.
As for exact guidance on this, I would need to know how long the potential exposure was, ventilation aspects, mask type, etc. to further assess risk based on my opinion, etc. imo jmo IANAD, crosschecking of course with current guidance.
As for the shared bathroom, I think that’s a potential risk element as well, jmo, moo, for a few reasons, as they have been named as risky locations in some articles and would be considered a risky location imo especially if/since she may be positive.
To be clear, the term for you would be “quarantining”, not “isolating”, as the latter is used to describe positive patients. Quarantining is if you’ve been potentially exposed or identified as a contact.
Hang in there, hopefully all of you will be mild and/or asymptomatic. Here for support.
