Viral infection - covid

2022-01-20 18:05:52
My mother had fever and sore throat and earache for 2 days. We thought it could be covid so we did rapid antigen testing which came out negative. After 5 days I developed fever and sore throat. My mother is fine now. It's been 7 days already since the symptoms 1st appeared. Can I stay with her while using mask or should I just isolate myself just to be sure incase it is covid.i clearly got infection bcz I was exposed to her.It's been 3 days now since my symtoms appeared. How long should I isolate myself considering I only have sore throat ? Just need advice. Symptoms are mild.

You can stay with her taking all precautions... Strict isolation is not required as you both had similar symptoms...👍
