I know no one in our social groups or in our extended family who think about doing any of these things anymore, if they even ever did. But as a family with an immune-compromised member, we still have to make these considerations all the time. My husband and I weigh benefits/risks for every social situation we consider. People are shocked when I tell them I can’t attend a gathering because it’s indoors and for a meal and no one will be wearing masks. They look at us like we’re crazy. It’s just so frustrating when we are the ones always asking the questions about the details of an event. No one else considers limiting exposure to infection anymore.

5 days after infection is not enough time for many to clear the virus. 2 negative tests 48 hours apart would be much safer criteria before attending an event.
