I’ve recently moved into a new role at my company after being in my previous one for 3 years. I am currently in training for this new role and unfortunately have tested positive for covid, it’s hit me pretty hard this time and I don’t feel well enough to be at work. I tested positive on Friday so I have only missed two days including the day of me posting this. The area of work I’m in is quite demanding, but since I’m in training someone else is currently in my position so I wasn’t too worried when I knew I’d be away sick. Everyone in my family has caught it so I also don’t want to spread covid all over my area, as the space we work in is quite small. I sent my boss a text last night letting him know I wouldn’t be in today as I’m still not feeling too good, but that I’d hope to be in the following day. He replied quickly with “ok” so I wasn’t too worried, until this morning when I checked my work phone in case I needed to pass on any info to another coworker. Instead I saw a message from my boss sent this morning telling me “I need you here tomorrow.” I don’t really know what to do here, if I feel okay of course I’ll go in but if I’m still feeling like this there’s no way I’d be able to work. Any advice?
