I thought they were calling Walgreens and triggering a potential positive so they could get in for a rapid test?

That might be a possibility...I know more and more places are testing it’s just making the 72hr part for results back...

I did 2 tests, just in case. First one at local Rite Aid pharmacy drive up window. Took the test at 5:15pm Fri , had results by noon Mon. Second test was at the bigger health care/hospital provider in our area. They wouldn't email results, had to set up a portal account with them to get digital results. Took test 9:30am Sat had results by 9:00am Mon. My first flight was 4:55pm Mon, both test covered the 72 hour rule and I had both results before I started traveling.

I took a rapid test and prescheduled it. Had results within hours. My son did the same.

I used Picture Genetics. It's an at-home test. They send it to you with a Fed-Ex overnight return shipping label. I took it Thursday AM it went out Thursday PM with Fed-Ex they got it Friday around 11 am had results by 7 PM Friday night. No problems with the paperwork when I got to Alaska.
