Hi,
Am desperate to get back to work! Am waiting for DS home rest result and was just wondering what sort of time frames people had experienced recently with them? Ours went in last post yesterday and arrived at lab at 8.30 this morning according to Royal Mail tracking. Fingers crossed for a speedy negative!!!!

How long did the kit take to arrive after you ordered it?

I posted a test back on Friday and I am still awaiting the result. That said, it was sent to me as a result of my self assessment on the Covid Symptom Study app (ZOE), and not because I had reported one of the 3 symptoms (I reported nausea 3 days in a row and so they invited me to test). I suspect there are degrees of priority in play - understandably.

The last test I did took 5 full days (app - I reported headaches). The 1st test in June (app again - I had a migraine with nausea/headache) was 48 hours.

Good luck!

@SchrodingersUnicorn I ordered on Sunday afternoon, it was posted Sunday evening and arrived Monday afternoon so I was able to return it pretty quickly: so far so good...
