Would you get a test in these circs?

Disclaimer! This is not me. (Dc1 has had 4 tests due to coughs and temps)

Teenager has barely left the house in 2 weeks. Has been in the garden and for a couple of walks, rurally. Parent Has been been to a small supermarket a couple of times. Milk delivered by milkman.

Teen started with headache and generally feeling unwell, then temp, then D then V.

It seems highly improbably that teen will have Covid given they've not been out. Would you book a test or assume it's something else?

Again THIS IS NOT ME. I'm interested in others opinions.

Yes definitely. I’m isolating atm awaiting test results as I had D&V on Friday and taste was off on Saturday. DH woke up Saturday aching all over and mild cough.

We’re both absolutely fine now, but given I’d been at an ante natal clinic earlier in the week with no social distancing in the tiny waiting room, we thought it best.

Definitely. There's still post coming into the house etc so there's always a chance of catching it.

Yes get a test. Fingers crossed it's nothing Flowers

@flappityflippers1 hope you get a negative result.

I've encouraged them to get a test.
