The actual test time is more like an hour at best. Still much better than using the state or reference lab and waiting 24 hours or more.

"The first rapid diagnostic test for COVID-19 has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It can detect the virus in approximately 45 minutes.

California-based Cepheid, which makes the test, says it can start shipping next week."
