Thank you.
you don't need to end up for isolation but go for a test or ask health care commete to take ur samples for covid
Do you have any other symptoms? were you previously tested or had significant contact history?

I had fever, body ache and loss of smell and taste for first five days. I wasn't tested earlier but my father tested positive and due to close contact I also assumed I was positive for covid.

yes u should go for covid 19 test plz .. thnx
yes u should go fora test..
and meanwhile take your multivitamin and calcium supplement daily..
go for test again
if ve no issue go to perform ur routine with proper SOP following
infective period for covid 19 is upto 28 days after first showing the symptoms in my opinion for the saftey of your family members you should be isolated for 2 weeks further
in addition you should have two consective negative /non detected PCR for covid 19
don't end. u need to complete the full 15days incubation period. then retest twice one week apart. to confirm ur negative.
Have you tested +ve?
If yes then go for test after 15 days. End isolation only if two results are negative. If you have self isolated yourself then also go for test to be sure that you will not spread it in community.
hello. it's always advisable to go for a test before going out of isolation.
You can end your isolation, Don't worry about loss of sense of smell it will automatically redevelop after 15-20 days, Improve you diet and vitamin intake especially vit C,D,E and zinc. After 2 weeks get you antibodies checked. if they are positive, better donate your plasma.
