I came into contact with someone who was recently tested positive with covid19 but haven’t showed any symptoms yet

Hi I went to the same kenduri (on the 29/2) as a person who i recently discovered was tested positive for covid19. My mother is her friend and they talked quite a bit and took pictures together during the kenduri. 4 members of my family attended the kenduri.

According to some rumours, it was said that she contracted her virus from Kes 26 as the 2nd cluster of cases.

None of my family have showed any symptoms of covid19 so far in the past week since that kenduri. Should I still go for the screening test? And if so how do I arrange for one? Do I just need to drop into a klinik kerajaan?

Greetings!

Thank you for your question. I understand that you are worried about contracting the COVID-19 virus because you and your family had direct contact with a person confirmed with COVID-19. I would encourage you and your family members to answer this quiz on Risk Assessment for COVID-19 to evaluate your health status in regards to this disease. After completing this quiz, you will be classified into several categories. Further instructions will be given at the end of the quiz. Please act accordingly. Since you had direct contact with a confirmed case, you may also directly visit the hospitals in this list for a COVID-19 screening test. (Designated Hospital for COVID-19). Other than that, do practice good hand hygien and wear your face mask in public.

You may consult a MOH doctor by clicking Ask Doctor at the Ministry of Health website (COVID-19 Portal) to ask any health issues related to COVID-19 starting from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm.

After 5.00 pm till 12.00 am, please direct your enquiries to our DoctorOnCall website at this link https://www.doctoroncall.com.my/tanya/.
