COVID exposed: It would be advisable for you to be tested to see if you have the COVID viral antigen present. If so, continued quarantine may be necessary. Also, your doctor may need to see you for possible complications that can develop like sinus infection or lower respiratory infection causing the persistent cough. These things would need to be treated before returning to work.

COVID 19: I agree with Dr. Ellis. Would get in contact with your doctor to better identify the cause of your symptoms. I also agree with testing as your symptoms may or may not be due to COVID 19.
