Things have now changed at my hospital. I have now been exposed as well. They are now having us continuing to work if no symptoms, we just have to wear a mask. No longer any quarantining of staff...
Of course by doing this you would greatly increase your chances of being exposed. You may very well be exposed even if you don't help out and could also have already been exposed and are asymptomatic....
We have had nurses at my hospital who had been exposed and were not symptomatic. When we finally got the patients test results back confirming it was positive they were sent home to be off for 14 days...
