The recent guidelines have made clear that a test immediately after isolation period is not recommended to find out if you're negative. Mostly the test won't show negative until a few days to 2 weeks after isolation.
It is no longer required to test yourself after isolation after a few weeks even
Next Steps
continue taking the safety precautions as usual and stay at home.
