My cousin, J, in her 50s, let me know that five members of the family tested positive for Covid. Couple in 80s, two in 60s and J.
Three men in group. Two women.
They were exposed on a Monday and that Saturday (4th) three of the five had odd symptoms and then were notified that the carrier had just tested positive. They assume the symptoms they had were related to Covid after learning the carrier tested positive.


They all felt fine but on Monday they went to an ER for testing and all Five tested positive.


They are quarantined together. Yesterday no symptoms. Today the men have low temps. The women no temp.


The original carrier has strep, controlled fever and pnuemonia and is quarantined at her home.


The question from cousin J is when did you or your loved one retest?

97 my cousin had to retest in 14 days. He had to retest every week there after until he had 2 negative tests.

This is mandated by his employer, so I am not sure where the protocol came from, but it makes sense to me.

Thanks. That’s what I learned from various local medical sources. Retest in 14 days but didn’t know about the extra tests.
These folks are all retired or self employed but seems reasonable to make sure it’s really gone.

Alva, of course they are quarantined.
The question is what were people who have had the virus been instructed to do regarding retesting.
