COVID Symptom study app and school age children

Hi. I do the Covid 19 app where you log your symptoms or lack of every day.

I've had an email today asking me to get a test - doesn't mean they think I have it (I have a runny nose but nothing else) but they want to collect the data to make their algorithm more accurate.

Trouble is, I've got a school aged child - hence the runny nose. If I choose to order a test to satisfy their need for data, will that mean my child needs to miss school until I get a result? Last time I had a test (again, they asked me to) it took 80 hours to come back but that was before term started so we just stayed home.
