Your lack of understanding is concerning, to say the least. Who's to say you won't pick it up on the door handle or from your cup that was probably handled by someone else, then you spread it to the condo's surfaces? Just because you are not infected does not mean that you are not a risk.

Agreed.

And many (of the young) who are both infected and highly contagious are asymptomatic (in that they do not display symptoms but serve as vectors for infection of others).

The only way you - one - can be absolutely certain you do not have, or one does not have, Covid-19 is to be tested for the virus and for the test to confirm that you are negative.

Can the mods just lock this thread already?

You might as well drive while drunk because you haven't killed anyone yet so means you can handle your booze..... :rolleyes:

Considering that almost all of OP's threads in CD have been locked, I would not be surprised to see it go that route, which I must also recommend. This thread is describing attempts to violate government mandate...

I don’t think this is accurate.

Theres a 14 day quarantine then you’re fine
 
I’ll just stay home I guess. Boy this is frustrating. I still don’t understand how this disease works and what all it entails.

Like under 10 to a group is fine, but seeing 1 friend is not??

and after quarantining for 14 days you can still have it? How?

So many questions, so few answers.

P.S. This forum has really helped me stay home lol, y’all are so passionate about staying home it makes me feel like I should just do that

You‘re not alone at being frustrated, believe me. But we all must do the right thing here. This is no joke.

But not everyone has, So you find a person who wasn't self quarantined and you have to start over again.

Right but if 2 people are quarantined for 14 what’s the problem??

Look, I get that I should stay home, but still don’t understand why if precautions are taken. Not going in large groups, making sure to wash hands, etc

Yep this situation has me frustrated as well.

My career is in jeopardy due to this pandemic( my avatar isn't for show).

As a foodie, this pandemic is certainly putting my favorite local restaurants in jeopardy for never being able to reopen( it's just not about myself here, but given that I frequent these local places, we get to know the staff and they are all very nice people who work hard).

Here is an extremely personnel thing for me right now..... My 94 year old grandmother has COVID-19 and isn't likely to survive and we won't be able to go to her funeral because of this.

So yeah... OP sorry you can't go hang out with people right now. If that is the most inconvenient thing you have to experience through this pandemic, you're lucky.

A girl wants me to go over to her condo and "bring wine."

Do you think it's safe?

What about inviting her over to my place, would that make it safer or less safe?

I need an opinion, thanks.

"Women and wine" will ALWAYS lead to trouble...

Don't do it!!

Depends on the girl and the wine and whether you like her and her family.😷 Being a "carrier" is not cool. FaceTime her and call it good. If you change hands it feels like a stranger, btw. Enjoy. 😛
