And that is the problem. I had a similar situation. A woman I play pickleball with is in a dance group with a woman who tested positive a few days later. The woman herself tested negative. However, her doctor's office had told her since it had been a week, she didn't need to get tested. We are all wondering what exactly she told her doctor's office. Fortunately, the dance group's leader wouldn't let anyone return to practice unless they got a test. The group practices indoors with no masks. Ridiculous. We have now decided that we won't be playing pickleball with her as long as she remains in her two dance groups.

I called my doctor's office, and they advised waiting a few days and then get tested. I am scheduled to get tested tomorrow.

I'm not sure even the doctors know what is the right thing to do/how long to wait.
