I recently tested positive for COVID 19 three days ago, and my report shows a CT value of 19.2. I am almost asymptomatic, with only a slight dry cough and occasional mild headache, but no fever. What does this CT value mean, and when should I get tested again to check if I am negative?

A CT value of 19.2 indicates a high viral load. Despite being mostly asymptomatic, continue strict isolation and monitor symptoms. There is no need to retest immediately unless required for travel or discharge criteria.
