I am diabetic and have the beginnings of emphysema. Do I have to stay home because I work at Costco?

Hello 😊

To answer your question, you can continue to work if you do not return from travel. If you are worried about your health, you can still discuss it with your employer since you are at higher risk of complications.

Monitor your health in the next few days. If you suffer from fever, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing or very important fatigue, I recommend you to go to this site (Click: 👉 👉 CoronaCheck) created by the Swiss authorities, but very adequate to our "local" situation in Quebec. This site will tell you whether or not you need to be screened.

At work, follow the hygiene measures that have been put in place, for example: Wash hands with soap and water for 20 seconds regularly, avoid direct contact for greetings, such as handshakes.

Happy day!
