Jenni: Same in Virginia - they will test for purposes of travel. Backend lab is LabCorp. One of our tests was turned around in 24 hours, the other one in 48 hours but they make no guarantee of turn-around time. They provided three reports - on sent to my LabCorp account, one sent to my MyChart account, and one sent to me via e-mail from CVS.
The LabCorp result report is below:
SARS-CoV-2, NAA Not Detected Not Detected 01
Testing was performed using the cobas(R) SARS-CoV-2 test. This nucleic acid amplification test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by LabCorp Laboratories. Nucleic acid amplification tests include PCR and TMA. This test has not been FDA cleared or approved. This test has been authorized by FDA under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). This test is only authorized for the duration of time the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of the emergency use of in vitro diagnostic tests for detection of SARS-CoV-2 virus and/or diagnosis of COVID-19 infection under section 564(b)(1) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 360bbb-3(b) (1), unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner.
When diagnostic testing is negative, the possibility of a false negative result should be considered in the context of a patient's recent exposures and the presence of clinical signs and symptoms consistent with COVID-19. An individual without symptoms of COVID-19 and who is not shedding SARS-CoV-2 virus would expect to have a negative (not detected) result in this assay.
The report uploaded to my MyChart account had the same text with this additional header information:
SARS-COV-2 RNA, QL, RT PCR (COVID-19)
The report CVS sent me via e-mail also stated:
Test type SARS-COV-2 RNA, QL, RT PCR (COVID-19)
