If your immunity is strong there might be changes of you may be asymptomatic after 2-3 days also. But there are chances you can infect to other people like elder one . If your immunity is not too much strong then u will get symptoms after 2-3days. That time you have to take proper medicines also isolation is important.
For proper treatment u can take consultation with me on practo.

Usually 3 to 5 days. You may not get infected at all Or you get the infection but will not develop symptoms at all Or you may develop mild flu like illness to severe covid ( God forbid).Take measures for covid prevention. No need to isolate yourself.

Covid symptoms infection is positive from 2-3 days before symptoms show up. . In a patient.
First 7days are crucial and if there is no fever and you can get back to work taking precautions.
