To think maybe I shouldn’t be in work

Work with elderly and vulnerable people, I have a bad cold, cough and sore throat. It isn’t Covid as I have tested negative, but it’s an awful hacking cough and I am losing my voice.

I wear full PPE but feel like I shouldn’t really be around vulnerable people in these circumstances.

If we don’t go in, we aren’t paid for the first 3 days off and otherwise it’s SSP after that.

Some of the clients have been commenting that I shouldn’t be coming into work when im like this and I do feel bad.

I had a day off about 2 weeks ago so I don’t feel like I can take anymore time off for the time being.

Also feel like it’s heavily frowned upon to take sick days in any jobs, people boast of never being off, but I don’t think it should be a bad thing to rest at home if you’re sick.
