How long have test results taken recently?

[ICanoeCanYou]

Have survived this long without needing to book a test but DP started with symptoms last night which persist this morning and has just booked a test for 9am. How long will it be before the result come through?

Had a test at 1pm Saturday, got the results at 9pm yesterday.

Thanks @Baboutheocelot
Was hoping for results tonight but maybe wishful thinking

My DS had a test at 1pm yesterday and we got the results at 8am this morning so 19 hours. Negative so been able to dash to get my other son who isn't ill ready for school

About 35 hours, we are in the south east, son had a test Saturday morning and back at 9pm last night

Still waiting 72 hours later! In the North West

Test 10.30am Sat
Results (positive) 9.30pm Sun.

Home test last week took 2.5 days from ordering test to getting results (much quicker than I was expecting) . My drive through a couple of weeks ago took 2.5 days from test to results.

Following this as I'm curious, my daughter had a test last night at 6pm in Dorset. Fingers crossed she doesnt have to miss too much school if its negative.

Test Friday 6.00pm results by lunchtime Saturday

Monday 12:30, results Tuesday 7:30am. Negative. N Ireland

Ds2 and I had tests last Wednesday at 10am and results came back 6am and 8am the next day. Much to ds1 and dh’s annoyance as it meant they were able to go to school/work 😂

Sent a home test away on Thursday afternoon and got results 7pm on Saturday evening

Home test
Posted early Thursday morning
Still no results

OH had a test on 25 October and got the positive result email within 4 hours. He was in hospital last week for something not Covid related and had another test but the results took 36 hours. East Midlands

Almost four days last week for a drive through test.

Just within 48 hours you minutes.

For those of you like us who did a drive through, did you have to administer the test yourselves? We did, but I'd previously assumed somebody would do this, based on footage of testers at drive throughs on the news.

We get a choice. Anyone over 12 can have assistance if wanted.

A couple of weeks ago in the SE - drive-through test 10am Monday, (negative) results 2pm Tuesday. So 28 hours. Am hearing similar reports of just over 24 hours around here.

My mum is now on 53 hours and counting (nw drive thru).

Ours took 36 hours. Last week. South east.

About 36 hours for DS's results this weekend.

Tested DD4 at Swindon, 11am today. Hope it’s not to long

I got my daughters results back at 3pm, so we waited 21 hours.

@Saladd0dger you had your test almost the same time as ours. We are in the East. Will be interesting to see when the results come through.
