Oh dear I might be starting to see symptoms of this thing after a neighbor coughed in my space the other day (unsure if they had it). Now I’m wondering if that’s enough to sue them for endangering me and potentially make me miss work time..

Hope you will be alright. Sadly, you wouldn't be the first to be assaulted with SARS-CoV2 at work. See for example the tragic story of a train ticket worker who died two weeks after being spat at in London Victoria station. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-52616071
Sounds a little pre-meditated, if you're that worried why don't you go get tested :) Also I think you would be hard pressed to isolate where your infection originated if you were positive - so you might not have the best luck with suing your co-worker. Also that just sounds a little nuts.
