To go out with a cough, sore throat and runny nose?

The cough I’ve had for nearly two months. It’s intermittent but can go on for a while and knowing my luck will start in the queue for the supermarket!

The runny nose and sore throat is due to sinusitis from said flu like illness two months ago.

I need to get food in today. Don’t want to send teenagers as worried they’ll forget about touching stuff, social distancing.

I am well in myself.

AIBU?

I so very much hate that 🤷🏼‍♀️ emoji. Use your words, MotherOfAll.

Why on Earth would anyone with an ancient cough and no temperature need to stay in?

I despair at the lack of intelligence on here at the moment.

I wouldn’t go out unless completely unavoidable. Maybe even wear a mask. You might feel silly, but hey, no one knows who you are😀! Your symptoms occurred before the start of the pandemic, and probably are just the remnants of the flu, but it seems clear that Clovid19 was around long before it really took off.
