CEV and treatment

Hello I've just tested positive for Covid (I felt I had to test as I'm a lecturer and don't want to spread it and I'm CEV). Can anyone tell me if I have to get treatment since I probably tick all the boxes on the CEV bingo card? If so what type of treatment?

If you're eligible for antivirals you need to call 111 for a call back as it's the weekend. Or you can contact your GP on Monday. You need to start them within 5 days of a +ve test and depending why you're cev determines whether you can take oral or need IV antivirals.
