Sunday PCR tests

Do the results for PCR tests conducted on a Sunday at a drivethrough site come back sooner/later/about as quickly as ones conducted on a weekday, in your experience?

Oh no. Will the youngest be bribed with snacks and tv. I hope you are feeling better soon.

We are still waiting. Both children are at home as they both have coughs (which are probably just normal coughs) and patient zero is back to bouncing off of walls. I definitely have a cold thing starting and the internet has gone down Sad

Oh no @crackofdoom!
Good luck with the youngest! Lots of CBeebies.

Still waiting here, and feeling a bit of a fraud. But also kind of enjoying the enforced laziness. Although I could be doing lots of housework I guess…🤔😂

We’re kind of undertaking a live experiment into how much shite on YouTube one child can physically take 😬

(his 11 year old brother is supervising the choice of viewing 🤦)

Lockdown was a doddle compared to this. I was feeling OK! We were allowed to go outside for Healthful and Educational Exercise every day!!

DS2 had one yesterday at 11.30, can back just now (as void)!
Another PCR looming....

Oh no! Starting the clock again, that’s the worst.

Noooo! That feels cruel.
LivingInABuildingSite · 29/11/2021 12:27

Both negative phew!

DD dropped at school.

stepbackfromthecircles · 29/11/2021 13:13

All negative. Phew!

RagzReturnsRebooted · 29/11/2021 13:45

Tested 11:30am,doubt they went to lab until late afternoon. Result at 3am this morning.

RagzReturnsRebooted · 29/11/2021 13:46

Oh and I was positive so the rest of us are getting one this evening! Didn't have symptoms, he was tested as a contact. Lateral flow was negative last night.

RagzReturnsRebooted · 29/11/2021 13:46

He was not I was. I'm at work!

ThirdElephant · 29/11/2021 19:42

Sorry to hear about the positives @crackofdoom, @RagzReturnsRebooted. Hope everyone stays relatively well in themselves and that the isolation passes quickly.

@underneaththeash That's a pain! I've never had a void result. Do you know what caused it?

Glad to hear about all the negative results. My meeting went well after all that. So glad the results came in early!

I'm now waiting on ours, done at 6pm yesterday and nothing yet. I'm supposed to be doing an afternoon shift at the vaccine clinic today, but I can't go in until the PCR is back. Need to leave in an hour!
Different rules to my work where they are fine with daily lateral flow tests. Feel a bit congested, which is fairly normal for me and slightly nauseous this morning. Hopefully not covid!
