Hey! Thanks for reaching out. I am glad that you are taking precautions and not showing any symptoms, stay safe. Regarding the chills that you are experiencing in the night is because you are too anxious. Whenever you have that thought convince yourself that it’s momentary, you are taking precautions, nothing has happened Because you’re staying home. You’ll be fine. Try to deep breath and distract yourself from the thought.
