[Why would it take 48 hours to get the results back? I had heard the tests could take 12 hours....but 48?]
Maybe if they put the sample on the bus and it sits in the bus station a while. Hopefully, they’re treating ebola tests a bit more seriously but with this circus, who knows.

“After hours receipt of samples is temporarily unavailable. All packages transported through a courier (FedEx, UPS, LoneStar Overnight) will be accepted during regular business hours. Specimens submitted to Greyhound Bus Station-Austin will be picked up by laboratory staff as usual. Hand-delivered samples will be accepted only during regular business hours Monday - Friday (7:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) until further notice.”
Let’s hope that’s not the reason for the delay.
