What do you think the chances of covid transmission from blood draw when nurse had mask below nose for 15 seconds? I had to get my blood drawn and nurse pulled mask down. I had a mask, face shield, and glasses on. I am incredibly immune compromised and now I am worried. I have no idea why the hell she would be pulling it down.
Doubt anyone here can give you a useful answer but it is probably very low. You were pretty covered up, the exposure (if it even was one) was brief. Hopefully she was properly gloved. We don't know how closely that facility is monitoring their staff for Covid. Don't know the chance that she could even be a carrier in the first place. Probably minimal.

If she didn’t have Covid then zero. Most health care workers are screened for covid and subject to temperature screening and self monitoring. Plus, you seem to have been well protected. You’ll now for sure in 14 days.

You have as much chance of catching C19 as you do getting a STD from her. I’m considered essential. We have to self monitor and take temperatures daily.
