Doctors with UT Health say one negative test result does not mean you are in the clear.

Getting a COVID-19 test immediately after Thanksgiving may not give you an accurate result, according to Doctor Catherine Troisi, an infectious disease epidemiologist at UTHealth School of Public Health.

You get that test on Tuesday: it comes back negative, and 5, 6, 7 days later you are shedding virus," Dr.

Doctors say – after an exposure – you should quarantine for 14 days, and ideally, get tested two or three times over that span.

You should get tested several times over a 14-day period after a potential exposure (like flying in an airplane) before getting together with others to make sure you're truly negative for #COVID19 @KHOU #khou11 @UTHealth https://t.co/BifPvdhZvW.
