COVID 19: Not sure what country you live in. In the United States, after a COVID 19 positive patient completes their period of isolation with resolution of symptoms- a second COVID 19 test is no longer being recommended by the CDC (to show a negative result).

Agree with Dr. F: If you have been free of fever for more than 24 hours without taking any fever medication, you do not need to retest and nor do you need to isolate yourself. Wish you good health!
