But this confirms the number ...

"The lab currently has one testing kit with capacity to test 700 specimens, which equates to approximately 350 patients. The CDC said it will expedite additional kits as needed to meet the demand of local health department labs."

They were each tested at least twice (not twice a day), and before they were released they had to have two negative tests at least 24 hours apart.

Officials from San Antonio and Bexar County released a CDC statement that said the person had been in quarantine for several weeks and tested negative for coronavirus on at least two occasions.
The person was released after meeting the CDC's criteria for release, which includes resolution of any symptoms and two consecutive negative tests collected more than 24 hours apart.

To be released after the 14 day quarantine

I’m just reporting a first hand report I heard (and rewound a couple of times to be sure I heard her correctly) from a quarantined citizen.

🤷🏻‍♀️ Such are the problems with professionals tethered by a Twitter terror
