They have a test that gives results in 2 hours. I was just diagnosed positive at Holy Cross Hospital. I was originally tested on 07/10/2020. The results of that test are in the wind. So depending what type of test used you could test positive and walk around for who knows how long sick.

Have you been feeling sick? What symptoms? Did they tell you when to come back and make sure you are negative? Hope you have a speedy recovery!

I took my test a week ago, Thursday. I’m still waiting for the results. My wife was in the hospital for a week, but she had pneumonia too. She’s home now, & we both inhaled a huge calzone. I had few if any symptoms. Temps of 100-101 before going to sleep. 98.6 when waking up. But I always felt well enough to work a gunshow with Khaled, or Ira. Hope you feel better. GARY.

Man, that sucks.

How's the rest of the family doing? Is everyone else sick too?

Have you been wearing a mask and taking precautions?

Read that Quest and some other labs are taking up to 2 weeks for results. It’s strange that the southern Palm Beach testing site is across the street from me and they may have a handful of cars go thru a day. With nearly half asymptomatic, It could be coming from anywhere. Hope you get well soon.
