COVID-19 test results in under 8 hours

by Steven Garrity

We’ve been fortunate on Prince Edward Island to have had limited exposure to COVID-19 and to have effective leadership from our health authorities.

Today, someone in the family needed a COVID-19 test (unlikely to be a real case, but had cold symptoms). We had a drive-in test just after 8am (maybe a 10 minute wait/process). When I checked today at 4pm, we already had our NEGATIVE result.

The results may have been ready sooner—I just didn’t think to check so soon.

Competent government!
