Re: Lab Delays and Early Closure of the Pick-up Site


Approximately 306 samples from Wednesday's surveillance testing have been delayed. Those affected did not receive a confirmation email that their sample was received. The lab expects results to be in by early afternoon; anyone flagged for follow-up testing will be contacted around 12:30pm and brought in for a confirmatory test between 1:30pm and 2:00pm. Thank you for your patience. 

Also, due to unexpected staffing constraints, the kit pick-up site on Olive Walk will close at 1:30pm today and resume normal hours tomorrow.
