I guess I'm confused...did she visit or drop off a dog? My sister drops off her dog to my mom almost every day and there are many days that she doesn't even see my mom...just yells hi/bye as she goes to work. Also, I was speaking about the OP saying the sil shouldn't have gone to work and how simple that is. Like it or not, the fact of the matter is telling your employer, who has the info. and yet tells you thst you still need to come to work; that you're not going to because "you feel" you should quarantine is NOT all that simple.
This is from the OP's post
She dropped their dog off to spend the night at my mom's. She comes to pick him up in the morning and comes in the house and visits. She gets home and gets a call saying she is positive for Covid.
I was talking about the SIL visiting the mom, but she still should have quarantined herself at least until her test results came back, although her dh was positive and it's safe to assume she had more than 15 minutes of contact with him. Under those conditions she should have decided to self-quarantine. That's just how it is, and people like her are why it keeps spreading.
If her boss doesn't let her then he's got just as much blood on his hands as the SIL if people catch it from her and become and very sick or worse.
