Has anyone had Covid testing at the Civic Center? If so, how long did it take to get results? I need a test within 72 hours of checking into a hotel in Maine. Thanks!

Personally I would try and schedule a test with my doctor or at a prompt care clinic now that the test kits are more readily available. Had a co-worker last week test with their doctor when their child spiked a temperature and was sent home from school. Test results were back the same day (negative BTW).

When my wife had to test before her gall bladder surgery, she went to Morton OSF Prompt Care (her doctor's office is there anyway) and on a Saturday, they had a drive thru tent set up. She got her negative result by late on Sunday.

I've heard people get them back the next day to not getting them back at all. It seems like 2-3 days is the norm, though.

No. I did mine at OSF.

I got a test at the Peoria Civic Center around noon on a Tuesday and saw the result online at 6am on Thursday. The latest I checked on Wednesday afternoon was 4:30pm. The results might have come in Wednesday night, but I wasn't in too big of a rush to get back to work.

My positive results came back within 24 hours at OSF. I got the test on a Sunday evening and had the results Monday morning. Luckily I had very very minor symptoms Never felt sick. Others I know weren't so lucky. Such a weird virus.
