Good idea.HealthTap's free, public site is for education. We are not able to provide referrals on this portion of HealthTap. In South Africa a medical provider will determine need for COVID 19 testing. Consult your local primary care provider or you can use telemedicine for individual consultations.

Definitely a good idea. Quarantine would be recommended as well. Inform your employer and your GP, who would be able to coordinate locally testing and proper follow up.
