Hi. i have been in the same environment where theres a confirmed case for covid-19 and the person only confirmed today that he has tested positive. i need guidance on what to do hence i dont have any kind of symptoms.

Possible testing: Time between exposure and getting ill is between 2-14 days,with average of 5 days.Depending on your work status,your health status,those around you,you may not need to be tested.Since the tests are often not accurate,the best thing to do is stay home and isolate for 14 days from the day you were in contact.Otherwise test between the above dates, but know that only means neg on that day.

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. Wish you good health.
