Yesterday was my sister's birthday, but we're celebrating it today with family. One of the guests that are coming over is my uncle, who had the stomach virus on august 11th - august 13/14th (No vomiting, just diarrhea).
Now I know, logically, after getting sick, people are usually only contagious for 3 days, but the maximum can be up to 2 weeks. Its way passed that, so either way, he's no longer shedding the virus.
I understand that. However, I can't get myself not to overthink. The thought that's running through my mind as of right now is.. "what if he's wearing clothes that had viral particles on them?" "What if he hugs us with those clothes?". I'm becoming a nervous wreck and I hate how I am. But this is really messing me up. I know he probably did wash his clothes after being sick, but the virus could survive the wash and still linger, can't it? I just need some reassurance or advice.
