I tested positive for COVID-19 and have already isolated for over 14 days. Do I need to be re-tested?

Thanks for asking! A contact tracer should have been in touch with you to help you monitor symptoms. You can end isolation after 10 days if your symptoms have resolved and you have no fever (without using fever-reducing medications). Most people do not need follow up testing. If you are immune-compromised, you may need to isolate for 20 days or more to make sure you are no longer contagious.

You don't retest for 90 days... You can go back out after 14 days OF HAVING NO SYMPTOMS... That is the official position of the Health Dept
