Fastest result COVID test

[PeoplesElbow]

I've heard some places around here give the quick test while others have had over a week turn over.

I was advised to go get one, I want the quick results, where in the St Mary's and Calvert area has the fast results?

Prince Frederick Hospital has the 15-min fast results drive thru. You have to call the Solomons Urgent Care Number to set it up, as its appointment only. Hopefully someone can confirm as this was a month ago.

Call your family doctor, if testing has been advised you should be given a doctors order for the test.

Contact w/someone? I wish you the very best of luck. Fingers crossed.

Yep, and thank you

The "quick" PCR test is BS. If you have antibodies for any coronavirus, any, be it the cold, or flu, or sars, or swine, or avian, any coronavirus, it will show positive.

Also. PCR testing in asymptomatic persons should be avoided because of the increased likelihood of false-positive results. Testing also should not be performed in asymptomatic close contacts of persons and should not be used to guide the use of post exposure prophylaxis. PCR testing should be used only to confirm a diagnosis in persons with signs and symptoms.

What the cdc says doesnt matter, what work says to do does.

Wait, JHU doesn't recommend testing IF you have symptoms?
Use to be you had to have symptoms to qualify for testing.

What a circle jerk. Does the medical community have a clue?

Trump, being the idiot that he is, probably had the best recommendation of all, you know all those things in ColdEz and other cold medicines the reduce the impact of the common cold and flu. Like zinc, vitamin C, etc. Take them. Colds and Flu are a virus.



But yes, take the things that improve your bodies immune system to fight a virus.

Last month I had to have a COVID test in advance of having a colonoscopy...which came back with no signs of trouble.

I was sent to the MedStar clinic in Charlotte Hall, building behind Arby's.
Had to call ahead for an appointment, was told the web address to do that, did so.
Thursday 9 July, get there a few minutes ahead, call from the parking lot, get told to come in, needed to use the entrance around the side.
While I'm filling out ze paperz, several people pile in, including a couple and their 2 children...testing to go on vacation.

Nursed just swabbed inside both nostrils, so I guess it was the fairly quick antibody test.
Got a call on Sunday that the result was negative, had the camera safari on Monday, back to work Wednesday.
Lowe's did pay me for the 4 days I missed work by needing to "quarantine."

Medstar Urgent care in Charlotte Hall. Make the appointment online, and make sure you tell them you have symptoms. If you are asymptomatic it takes as long as week, tell them you have symptoms they do the rapid test. At least that's the way it was a month ago.

 

[PeoplesElbow]

Negative for both types of test.

Now to get overdue blood work done.
