My husband tested positive on the 26 dec. how long should i wait to get test? our gp advised 7 days?

5-7 days after : The medical community is in agreement that after a close exposure to someone who has tested positive, testing at days 5-7 provide the most accurate results. Prior to this you may get a false negative. You should quarantine during this period, even if you have no symptoms so as not to spread the virus if you eventually turn out positive.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Contact your doctor/local hospital, by phone for evaluation and testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Get Covid vaccine. Wish you good health.
