“If we did not shake hands or you did not come into contact with me if I coughed or sneezed, there is no action you need to take whatsoever,” he said. “If we did, however, touch or shake hands, or if I sneezed or coughed near you since Monday, it is recommended that you self-isolate for 14 days, but you do not need to get tested. After speaking with medical personnel, I will continue to follow Department of Health protocol and remain isolated while I lead our government remotely.”
So if he sneezed or touched you how come you do not need to get tested only self isolate?
Because self-isolating will prevent you from giving the virus to others regardless of whether you have symptoms or not. If you have symptoms you will be tested but it’ll be like being tested for the flu as there is no “cure” other than the usual.
