    My husband has an in person class at university; so once a week he has like a 55% chance of COVID. I have a genetic condition that makes me at risk for complications. Should I be worried I'm gonna die? We wear a mask everywhere but I fear that won't be enough.

      I don't want to worry you more than necessary, but a standard issue face mask is designed to protect the outside world from your aerosols, and is much less effective the other way around.

        Thanks to my medical issues I have a personal stock of N95s from before the pandemic which filter our 95% of what you breathe in... but I'm still paranoid.
