When should i be tested for corona? i have a sore throat which seems likely due to a post nasal drip. also had a dry cough which is on and off. no fever

No. : Monitor your symptoms. If your cough gets worse over the next 48 hours or you develop a fever (temperature more than 100.4F or 37.8C) then you should be tested.
