Hi, iam Marianne Vorpahl, Promise me you’ll have a good time.
Ah, these contagious days of Covid! It’s been a wild ride, hasn’t it? From the initial shock of the pandemic to the ongoing struggle to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe, it’s been a roller coaster. But we’ve made it this far and we’ll make it through. We just have to stay vigilant and take all necessary precautions - like social distancing, wearing masks, washing hands regularly - you know the drill. Let’s keep our chins up and get through this together!
Are You Still Contagious After 5 Days Of Covid? [Solved]
Bottom line: Even if you start to feel better after day 5, don’t let your guard down! Keep wearing that mask until day 10 - just to be safe.
Incubation Period: The time between exposure to the virus and when symptoms first appear is known as the incubation period. It can range from 2-14 days, with an average of 5-6 days.
Contagiousness: People are most contagious during the first few days of their illness, when they have the highest viral load in their body.
Symptoms: Common symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell and sore throat.
Transmission: The virus is spread through contact with respiratory droplets from an infected person’s nose or mouth when they cough or sneeze; close contact with someone who has COVID-19; touching a surface that has been contaminated by the virus and then touching your face; and inhaling airborne particles from an infected person’s coughs or sneezes.
Prevention: To prevent transmission it is important to practice social distancing (staying at least 6 feet away from other people), wear a face covering in public settings where social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (such as grocery stores), wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands
Covid is highly contagious, so it’s important to take extra precautions on days when you’re out and about. Wear a mask, keep your distance from others, and wash your hands often. It’s also a good idea to avoid large gatherings and stay home if you’re feeling sick. Let’s all do our part to help stop the spread of this virus!
