So not terrible by any means but I wouldn’t rely on it if you’re needing a genuinely fast result for something time critical.

As an aside I have also decided the nose swab may be instrusive but it’s over quickly compared to the amount of time it took to fill the vial to the 4ml line with saliva this morning. YMMV :-)
Is the Halo Day 2 test a nose swab or saliva....assuming nose since its PCR. Even if Halo takes 6.5 hours that still beats the end of the next day results offerred by Express Test...how do they expect to stay competitive?
