Depends: How close and how long was the exposure? Wear a mask, stay at safe distance from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Wish you good health!

COVID 19 contact: How close was contact? Less than 6 feet apart? Both wearing mask? Person appear ill at the time? Outdoors or in poorly ventilated, crowded tight space? Less than 10 minutes? If someone who is infected coughs or sneezes right at you, you can become infected. Would quarantine. Being tested is the only way to know for sure.
