Continue to isolate yourself. If you develop symptoms like cough, sore throat, fever, etc then get the test done.
There isn't a need to get tested immediately if you have been secondary contacts. However, have a close watch on people around you and yourself for any symptoms
Next Steps
Isolation
Do covid test if you show symptoms
