      Maybe disinfect the possible surfaces touched by her then pour some detergant all over, use water pipe to spray? But will spraying cause the virus escaping into the air which in turn endanger you? I m not sure too but I guess that’s what I will do…wipe first and use water and detergent for whole toilet…spray lightly slowly and put in mask maybe. Take care …and this morning I thought I may also…luckily ok after drinking some water after woke up…throat dry while sleeping.

        The inevitable has happened . My helper tested positive :gloomy:

        Something even though I was dreading it, I was sort of prepared for next steps given my aging parents are staying with me. Asap, I isolated her at home and did the necessary for requesting external isolation for her, and have managed to get her to the medical isolation centre by the next day . Fortunately, she has it reasonably mild -- just sore throat, no fever, some tiredness. We are all testing, so far ok, but obviously need to monitor closely and take tests the next few days - fingers crossed. Pretty good chances that one of us could have gotten it from her. :sad: Planning what to do , if one of us get it. For now we are avoiding close interactions with each other, keeping to our rooms, - just in case. But 🙏 we somehow escape .

        Any suggestions,

        Now my question - How do I clean the toilet she used? It is almost 24 hours since she last used it. Can I mask up and spray disinfectant first and then clean up? I am not sure if I should get a parttime cleaning service to get it done? Since we are all under HRN , is that allowed, even if it is, is it a responsible thing to do?

        The only bright spot is I can go collect my loot of ARTs 😆
        I can feel your anxiety. I was like that 2 days ago... My sibling was tested positive and then we were trying hard to evacuate everyone, especially my mum from there... Alas, within a few minutes later, everyone was tested positive!
        It's really scary how fast it spreads! The only comfort was majority had the booster shot done so it was either no symptom or very mild.

        Anyway, it is recommended to wear a mask at home during this period. My extended family was too late in doing so.
        Open every window to air the place.

        If you plan to clean the bathroom yourself, please mask up PROPERLY. Someone I knew did cleaning and got it because her surgical mask was loose. Personally I like the KF94 mask which covers up fully.

        When everything looks \"depressing\", the ART loot really makes things brighter! 😂 It's really not the cost but the vibes of something positive that helps.

                  May I ask how did your helper know she is infected since she has only a sore throat.

                  I want your \"loot\" :imcool:

                  Take care.

                    Ask another family member not living in the same household and not with HRN to collect to kits.

                      Didnt think of KF 94 mask, will use one.

                      Lucky they got it mild. Actually that is the best right , get it but no to mild symptoms. Can be done with it somewhat atleast .

                      Free ARTs like getting a candy from teacher
