Ask JBE. He may shut you down though?

How were you exposed?
Indoors / outdoors?
Socially distanced?
Did you touch person?
Length of time you were near this person?

Don’t worry about it. You’ve already been counted as 2 positive tests.

Nah, a broken watch is right twice a day. Also, the regular tests don't seem to be any better and IF they are better the ones diagnosing results are sketch at best.

Unless you’re symptomatic, I wouldn’t recommend getting tested. If you are younger, healthy, with minimal comorbidities than you will be fine. This is coming from someone who has worked with the largest covid patient population in the DFW metroplex

If you are worried then don’t hang around people for a few days

Urgent care on 28

Urgent Care across the street from Kroger or Premiere by Chick-fil-a.
If you test positive the doctor should prescribe Hydroxychloroquine if you feel bad, Z-pack and/or steroids, and maybe zinc.
IF you are asymptomatic you may not need any medication.

Also add:

How long ago were you in contact with this person?

If it was a day or 2, it may be too soon to test as it can take several days to a few weeks before symptoms show.

Almost pointless to get tested without symptoms.

Don’t fricking get tested unless your work requires it. Everyone who gets tested will come out as positive to add to their total count and keep the panic going. Don’t do it.
