Do we need to self isolate or go for testing if exposed to person exposed to another person tested positive for covid19? is it recommended to keep child going to school at home or not.

See below: Please contact your doctor by phone for further evaluation and mechanism for testing in ZA. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. Be sure to get tested, if you get symptoms. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Follow the local guidelines about sending your child to school. Wish you good health.
