When to test for COVID
I had visited my physiotherapist last Thu, 13th Jan, 9:30 am.
Yesterday night, Sun, 16th Jan, she informed me that she has tested positive for COVID. On Friday, 14th Jan she had temperature when there was no visit with her.
I have no symptoms at this time. Should I get tested and when? If/When I do get tested, should it be RT-PCR or RAT?
