How do we know that testing for Coronavirus creates a backlog? I don't have enough information to say how the system works, but I imagine a nurse takes an additional blood test, and then someone sends that test to the CDC. The CDC tests the blood, and sends a response to the hospital.
I am curious to know more about the actual process.
- dillonmckay 7y agoI believe a test takes 6 hours, there is already a several day backlog, and the samples are sent via FedEx.
