This seems to indicate that I may actually have gotten it at CES, as I've speculated (I came down with a dry cough and a low grade fever about 10 days after. The cough lasted a month and that first week was the worst I've felt in years.)
The following week I flew to our GA office and I'm pretty sure I gave whatever I had to a coworker from Madrid and my boss. My Madrid coworker got sick about 10 days after that and my boss got sick (while in Austria) a few days later.

@H3athers you probably got covid on that conference, I remember that you told us about the illness.
Too bad that you probably gave it to two traveling coworkers, but you couldn't know then how easy it would spread.
I wonder if conferences ever will be the same again? Crowds and handshakes ++, maybe not in a couple of years at last.
@ceb at that point, nobody had really heard of the virus and I had no symptoms when I was in GA (I got sick literally the day I got back home from that trip. I got home on a Friday from CES and left for GA two days later. I got back home the following Friday and that's when the symptoms started.) Luckily my coworkers are fine but being that they were both on long plane rides soon after, who knows who they came in contact with?
