I have done a COVID 19 test, and my report came inconclusive. What should I do next? Should I repeat the test, and for how many days should I stay in isolation in the meantime? Please advise.

Inconclusive means the result was not clear or the sample was inadequate. Repeat test in 2 to 3 days. Stay isolated until you confirm with a clear negative or positive result.

My husband has taken a COVID test three times over the last three days at two different labs. Two tests came back positive with CT values of 28 and 32, while one test was negative. I am very confused about these results and cannot determine whether he is actually positive or negative. Please advise.
