I'm really worried because someone I know tested positive for Covid and had symptoms. But after about 5 days, the symptoms went away. Do we really need to do another Covid test now, or is it okay to skip it since theyre feeling better? I'm just unsure if there's a risk, so some guidance would be really helpful.
