  The amount of testing seems to be ramping up, but we also hear reports that results now take up to three days to get back, where we got the results for our tests (which happened on Wednesday and Thursday) on the next day. As for symptoms: Male (56) fought quite hard to get one, as he had long direct contact with a positive-tested person. Male (80) got one because of "risk group" (age) and symptoms (light fever).
