Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service,

Well, since it's been 12 days already since the first sample, it's recommended that you repeat the RT-PCR now (2 samples, one from deep nasal and one from oropharyngeal)...

Regarding the CT findings, please upload the complete report and also upload any other investigations done during this period, any treatment taken so far, in detail so that we can assist you further...

In the interim, avoid going to any crowded places...strictly maintain social distancing, frequent handwashing, face mask while going out and all other universal precautions applicable nowadays...

Take Care
Kind Regards
