How contagious is this virus say in comparison to flu or norovirus which I always catch every year?
I'm only asking as I had an anxiety riddled day today.
I walked to the shop by my house I had to walk through a little park and this man was infront of me and he had a vape and honestly I got closer but stepped quite far to the side it's a narrow pathway and he blew out his vapour just as I'm getting close really was out of order I felt and I inhaled the whole cloud.
Then I went in the shop no gloves touched the handle usually so careful with this but on the way home the wind blew my hair into my mouth so I moved the hair and was like shit I haven't washed my hands and touched the handle the milk etc
So I've come home riddled with anxiety at breathing in this vapour cloud and the handle incident. I'm pregnant I don't think I would be this bad otherwise. How contagious is this do you think? Someone at work had the sickness bug and I didn't go near him different toilet etc and I got home being sick all night long it was that easy I'm hoping this virus isn't as contagious but I've a feeling it is if not more so?
Can anyone give me some logical advice or opinion on this ? Have hardly ate today worked myself up so much.
