Should my boyfriend get tested for covid even though he has no symptoms?

[Anonymous]

So he exercises a lot dont know if that helps prevent Covid and me and 7 other family members caught covid all at once. My boyfriend was around me and took me to the hospital to get tested. So he hasn't shown any symptoms and probably won't go get tested unless he starts having some.

Nurse here! Yes, he should go get tested and isolate himself until he does. He has had enough contact with you that he needs to be tested.

[Asker]

Yes I agree he kissed me the day before we found out. How many days should he wait to get tested?

[SecretsofKB]

He should get tested as soon as possible. He may not be able to get in right away, so it's best to try to do it at soon as he can.

[Asker]

Ok he said he was if he started feeling sick but I think he should soon

[SecretsofKB]

You're right. He shouldn't wait to feel sick. The sooner the better.

[Jessica405]

Yes. He should get tested. He could be asymptomatic, but still capable of infecting others.

[LegendaryIcon]

if you don't feel safe around him, and you're dating him, then yes, you have a right to know if he has it or not

[joeldalton]

No he shouldn’t. Why would you take a test if you’re not sick? That makes no sense.

[Wise4myage]

No, only if he shows symptoms.

[Shamalien]

Nobody should get tested, ever

It’s better to wait for symptoms
