If your daughter with COVID is unable to breathe, I would call 911 for emergency transportation to the hospital. I would take her to he hospital only if instructed by the staff who did the COVID test.

For any type of infection, not just Covid, you only need to take your child to the hospital if she is sick enough to need the hospital and/or emergency care. There is no reason to take your child to the hospital if she is only mildly ill. So, if she is able to eat or at least drink, is not dehydrated, is not having difficulty breathing, and is not appearing quite ill to you, you do not need to take her to the hospital.
