I am officially quarantined
I am a pharmacist at UPenn LGH. They have been screening us every day on the way in to work for fevers. I haven't had any type of fever but I started with a cough and generalized fatigue on Friday. Probably just a common virus, however, my manager noticed my illness today and I let him know I wasn't feeling well. So he called our hospital infection control officer who then mandated that I get tested.
Unfortunately we are saving all of our rapid tests for patients, so I get to wait 5-7 days for results for which time I am officially quarantined. If I test positive the quarantine goes to 14 days.
Like I said, I probably don't have it. I feel pretty decent besides being sick. But....I am going to be really bored for the next week!
