COVID 19 testing: What was exposure like? Were you close to infected person – less than 2 meters? Were you both wearing masks? Did the person appear ill? Sneeze or cough near you? Interaction less than 10 minutes? My understanding is that in South Africa, you may not be approved for testing unless you actually have symptoms.
