I was in brief contact with a parent who has tested positive for covid-19. i had the child with me for rough 3 hours. she was unaware she had covid as she is a symptomatic. i was told not to isolate. should i get tested?

COVID 19: We know contact was more than10 min.How close was contact? Less than 6 feet apart? Both wearing mask? Person appear ill at the time? Outdoors or in a poorly ventilated, crowded tight space? Even if you have the “right” answers to these questions, if someone who is infected coughs or sneezes right at you, you can become infected. Being tested is the only way to know for sure.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Please contact your doctor by phone for further evaluation and mechanism for testing in your area. 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.
