Agree with above.: Hi MT,
I agree with the doctor above. If you have any of the symptoms listed you qualify for testing, but it may be possible to test remotely (instead of in a hospital). There are certain criteria that could make you high risk which is important.
Feel free to call for a consultation, I am available.
