I have been tested positive for covid and today is my 7th day. Do I need to do a re test after 14 th day if I don't have any symptoms? And when can I finally get together again with my family members?

You need to have two consecutive negative test to confirm free of infection.

Usually within 14 days the symptoms set in, hence the 14 days quarantine period. You can get another swab taken on the 15-18 day for confirmation, after which it is safe to go ahead and meet family members. However you still have to continue the safety precautions. If you have any symptoms, then you should visit the nearest hospital for follow up. If you found my answer helpful, please leave a like/ thanks. Thank you.
