So I had the rona for Christmas; wife and kids never got it. My wife tested positive today. Since I'm immune, am I still able to go to work?

Here is what I've seen several places:

"People who have tested positive for COVID-19 do not need to quarantine or get tested again for up to 3 months as long as they do not develop symptoms again. People who develop symptoms again within 3 months of their first bout of COVID-19 may need to be tested again if there is no other cause identified for their symptoms."

In a few weeks when my vaccine is in full effect I will assume that I am immune when exposed to Covid unless I get symptoms. I would treat things the same if I had Covid already. I know in both situations it is possible to get Covid but it is unlikely.

I never called in sick just because my wife was sick in the past and don't plan on starting now. I will treat Covid the same way.

Our school district (and all school districts in the state I believe) do not require students or staff to quarantine if you have been lab confirmed with Covid in last 3 months.

That comes from a cdc recommendation so I believe you are good not to quarantine.

In talking with sources connected to Meyer's family on Sunday, there was laughter about the persistence of the Texas pursuit.
