Hi....So, my boss has had a cold for about a week, so I figure he is not contagious anymore. However, I have been cautious when i am around him, as I don't want to get sick. I work in the Art Gallery on campus, and I will be going home for the first time this weekend. He was talking to me, about a foot and a half away, but when he talked I felt his breath all over me. I quickly got up and wlaked away, but I don't know if the damage has already been done. As I sai,d, he has been sick for a week,a nd my be getting better. I have been taking Airborne, so i think I'll be OK...but, what do you think my chances of getting sick are? i wouldn't really worry if I waould not be going home this weekend, but this is very mpornt me.
How much of a transmission does the common cold really do between air....i thought it was just picking up from your hands, which were infected with the virus by touching something with the virus on it.
HELP!

You can carry it around, and not get it for a week or two after your boss is better. I happens. On the other hand, you my not get it at all.

that depends on how healthy u are, and do u get sick often. also dont thin about it to much, then u'll probably end up getting it.
