    Hello and welcome


    I'm glad your going to work this afternoon as it will take your mind off it. The chances of you getting ill from this isprobably zero, if i were in your shoes i would feel uncomfortable ( just knowing someone was ill )but i wouldn't be believing that i would get ill. I belive that you have to be very very close to a person to catch anything.


    Try and relax as i'm sosure you will be fine.Edited by: cloughie

    Yes, I agree. These viruses are not airborne so providing you take the normal precautions of making sure your hands are clean and avoiding touching your face, then you will be absolutely fine. Believe me, I have been unlucky enough to stumble upon v*, in shops, cinemas etc and have never caught anything.

    I agree with Cloughie, work will be a good distraction Oh, and welcome to the site!
