Wayne Tanner, 61, who had COVID-19 in late March 2020, watches his neighbors John Yurek, left, and his wife, Loretta, not pictured, carrying groceries to their Claremont, N.H., apartment on Wednesday, March 3, 2021. Tanner’s infection was never confirmed with a test, but after checking his symptoms over the phone with his doctor and a visit from paramedics who checked his vital signs, he isolated inside his apartment for three weeks through a fever cough and loss of taste and smell. “My greatest fear was spreading it to them,” he said of the Yureks.
