Obviously COVID is surging & it's also panicking. Once you have been positive in one of the tests, you have no need to test for further. Maintain the isolation protocol till 7 days or your symptoms gets better. Take rest & all the medications. Yes, if you have COVID there is chances that you can spread COVID to others. So stay isolated as much as you can. Get well soon. For further queries please consult.
