Brief Answer:
PCR testing

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ma’am,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns and I assume that you need to be cleared as regards coronavirus.

This requires RT-PCR testing to clear that you are infected, if testing is not possible then you need to self isolate for 14 days and then go back to work.

I hope you find this helpful.
Kind regards
