Contact local Dr.: in South Africa, Covid test referrals are done locally. They cannot be done via a telemedicine consult based in the US. Contact your local Dr for a referral. They can probably do it over the phone. They may ask you specific questions to assess your risk .

COVID 19 testing: In South Africa a medical provider will determine need for COVID 19 testing. Consult your local primary care provider or you can use telemedicine in Africa for individual consultations. There are a number of free apps to look at your risk.

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.
