Greetings, thank you for your question.

First and foremost, it may be difficult to carry out investigation if your wife does not have any symptoms as doctors would prioritize on those who have contact with positive COVID19 patient and with symptoms. Nevertheless, your wife can contact our doctor for risk asessment (MOH COVID-19 Portal) and the doctor may refer her to the nearest government clinic. If you think your wife has one of COVID-19 symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath) you are advised to get it check as we need an objective value to reassess the symptoms. You can visit the nearest government clinic to you. There will be an isolated area for patient with suspected COVID19.
