Are you kidding me right now? You’re asking us? Why don’t you call a doctor?

At least 3 days after potential exposure to get an accurate reading (~85% accuracy). 7 days for about ~95% accuracy. Can’t wait till symptoms show if you are asymptomatic.

Where are you getting the 95% thing from? To my understanding the swap pcr is like 70% accurate.

Unless you went to medical school. Just shut up. This is not one of those questions everyone needs to have an opinion on. OP... ask a doctor not a bunch of consultants on the internet

To get an accurate reading. I figure if you go too early it might not be picked up during testing

True.

Prob like 7 days. Wait till you have symptoms. Headache or cough.

Never had a cough or a fever. You want to get tested twice, make a teladoc appt for approval now and do it again in a week or two.

Depending on your age and health condition, its better to quarantine yourself for 2 weeks unless you start showing symptoms

You could be negative for longer than what all these people mentioned and still be a carrier/ develop symptoms. Ask a doctor, not fb

So I have completely lost interest in my area of practice mainly because I haven’t been exposed to many matters (our team is really slow) and I am the most junior in the team.
