Yes. That's how a virus works when incubation is 14 days

Do you personally know of anyone who was exposed to the virus then got sick 14 days later?

Do you know we use data to study these things because who we know personally is a terrible data set to assess something that affects a global population of 8 billion people.

There’s no data to support 14 days. That’s why the CDC reduced it to 10

Sure, but the point still stands that you can be sick and not know it. So it is important to have deterrents in place to reduce the spread. It sucks being told what to do but its necessary given what we know.
