<s>[INST] When should I get a test for COVID-19? [/INST] 
Anyone with symptoms such as acute onset of fever and cough should be tested, wherever possible, to ensure that they receive appropriate clinical care. People who do not have symptoms but have had close contact with someone who is, or may be, infected may also consider testing. Contact your local health guidelines and follow their guidance.  

While a person is waiting for test results, they should preferably wear a mask when interacting with others in or outside of their household or sharing space with others. Where testing capacity is limited, tests should first be done for those at higher risk of infection, such as health workers, and those at higher risk of severe illness such as older people, especially those living in seniors’ residences or long-term care facilities.

Individuals with signs and symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 or those who test positive for the virus should wear a mask when interacting with others in or outside of one’s household or sharing space with others.
