I’ve shown no symptoms and my temp hasn’t gone above 98.3. But every test I’ve done confirms it. Hopefully I’ll be cleared by Wednesday but until then I’ll be stuck binge watching Netflix shows.

Not on Molecular (PCR) Tests that are required for travel purposes -- I should have clarified that in my post above.  Check out the fine print under the avecina website "may take as long as 7 days"

https://www.avecina.com/covid/

Results in less than 24 hours.
Type of Test: Rapid Antigen COVID-19 Test
Certain institutions such as the Bahamian Government may only accept a PCR COVID-19 test to allow entrance. There is currently no such a thing as a “rapid PCR test.” If you specifically require a PCR test, please be aware that results may take as long as 7 days and this test must be done at the office and not our drive through location.

I’ve had a bunch of the antibody test but even the nasal swabs(which absolutely suck to get) I have gotten the results back that day through them. I’ve done a few that were sent off to labcorp but yeah the pcr will take time. 

I’ve been getting the antibody tests once a day because my doc wants to use them to pin point when I contracted and how long it took after I began developing the antigens to get rid of the Covid. Apparently some people are not developing antibodies and they are not showing symptoms so they are literally just carriers and their body isn’t even fighting it off.  

It’s just weird because I am completely asymptomatic. So it basically feels like I am just using my pto for last week and a half.
