Maybe this should be a FFFC, but I went to work with conjunctivitis (aka pink eye). Two of my co-workers freaked out, but my Dr. gave me the green light to work and said it is only highly contagious for children because it basically needs direct contact to spread. Spoiler alert: no one in my office got pink eye.
On the other side of the coin I have left the office to work from home when my coworker came in a sniffling, sneezing, coughing mess. If your face is wet from your eyes watering, nose running, and sneezing it is just way too many infected secretions and opportunities for your virus to spread in the air over to me. Another spoiler: Patient 0 unleashed a cold epidemic on our office.
Assuming the fluids are contagious, that is. Allergies give me the same thing, but I'm not likely to spread anything.
