You should assume the worst and take precautions. In this case, assume its on your floor and act accordingly. No regrets this way!

How would knowing where they are change your behaviour? The recommendation is to shelter in house. That doesn’t change.

We had the same in your bldg. Management said they can’t disclose info due to HIPAA compliance. They would not even give info on what floor it happened.

They are right in not telling you the details. Just because they are in your building doesn’t necessarily increase your risk. You can go to grocery store and be exposed to someone who is a symptomatic which is a higher risk. What you should rather worry about is what steps the management is taking for anyone who is detected as positive? Me and my fiancé had COVID and we self quarantined for almost 3 weeks. Our building delivered all packages and mail to our door so that we don’t have to step out at all. We ordered everything we needed online and was delivered to us at doorstep. We have in unit washer and dryer so didn’t have to worry about that.

Yea you should definitely press them on that. They need to have some process in place to protect others from getting exposed.

Be sanitising everything and letting people know so that they can be precautious

You should ideally be doing that any way. Sanitising that is.

Same in my bldg.. seems management needs to adhere HIPAA compliance. We have 23 cases and 2 losses in our building

So now what.. we stop laundry too😟

Take precautions while doing laundry. Wear winter gloves, masks. Wash everything immediately after entering the house. I still don’t understand what help knowing who is infected is. Are you going to stop them from using a different laundry room? All of this sounds like invasion of privacy and is rightly protected by the law.

Sanitise everything you touch. You’re implying that the person who’s sick isn’t doing that. They probably are, those are the guidelines.
