I know 7 people in 5 counties that have been tested since last Thursday and they all have gotten their results already. I think they are bullshitting us.

Mr. Sauto -
You are correct in saying that individuals will be notified of their test results relatively quickly. Dr. Williams said they contact local health departments within an hour of having a positive test reported. Not sure of the turn around on negative tests.
However the backlog comes into play due to the fact that they have so much data to enter, and up until a couple of days ago, a lack of man power to enter said data into the database. They are slogging through thousands if not tens of thousands of cases per day to enter into the system.
