[Speaking]Describe your experience of quarantining at home because of COVID 19
I received a word that there was a confirmed case of covid 19 at the pilates studio I go to. I got tested for covid and the result was negative. But the very next day I got the bad news that I had to self-quarantine for 2 two weeks since I was in close contact with a confirmed patient. I went to into quarantine in my room and I had to work from home. I had to be extra careful since I live with my family. To be honest, I felt wronged during my quarantine. After all, my test result was negative. I always wore mask while exercising. And I had even got my shots. I had to report my temperature and whether I had any abnormal symptoms to a civil servants who handled my case. Sometimes, I received the visit to check If I was quarantining properly at home. I was told to keep all my garbarge in my room and throw it out all at once when my quarantine ended.
내가 다니는 필라테스 스튜디오에서 코로나 확진자가 나왔다는 연락을 받았다. 코로나 검사를 받았고, 그 결과는 음성으로 나왔다. 그러나 바로 다음 날 확진자와 밀접접촉을 했기 때문에 2주간 자가격리를 해야한다는 청천벽력과 같은 소식을 들었다. 그래서 내 방에서 격리를 시작해서 재택근무를 해야 했다. 가족들과 함께 살고 있었기 때문에, 더더욱 주의를 기울여야 했다. 솔직히 좀 억울한 마음도 들었다. 검사결과 음성이었고, 운동하는 동안 항상 마스크를 착용했다. 또 백신 접종도 모두 마쳤다. 격리기간 동안, 체온과 이상증상 여부를 담당공무원에게 보고해야 했다. 집에서 잘 격리하고 있는지, 가끔씩 확인하러 오시기도 했다. 쓰레기를 방에 보관했다가, 격리가 끝나면 한꺼번에 배출해달라는 요구도 있었다.
