re: Covid-19 PCR test for travel

Doc in the box places in Birmingham are advertising for them. PCR with rapid results.

There is a kids urgent care place we've gone in Vestavia, and it is the PCR nasal swab.

Both rounds of tests we've done in the past week, we got results the next day. It was a little more than 24 hours both times, but they told us 24-72 hours was the window. I think if you go later in the day you can't expect results the following day. And this place is open until 10PM, I think. Tested around 3PM last Friday, and got called with results around 8PM Saturday night. Daughter was positive, I was negative. Waited until Tuesday to test my wife and boys, and since I took them all I got tested again. That was around 4 on Tuesday, and they called at 5 on Wednesday. Everyone still negative. May end up taking my daughter to get retested to see if she is negative now, and we might be able to get her back in school quickly and our youngest back to daycare.
