Will the hospital inform you when the nucleic acid test results come out?

Generally, you may send text messages, mostly electronic test results reports, and you will not call to tell the results.

Look at the hospital. If the hospital's Internet application is good, it will generally send you an inspection report directly, not limited to the COVID-19 nucleic acid test results.

If other hospital inspection reports are not pushed, this nucleic acid test will not be pushed. Besides, it's a good thing nobody told you. This means that it is negative.

Principle of nucleic acid detection

All living things contain nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA. Novel coronavirus is a virus containing only RNA, and the specific RNA sequence in the virus is a sign to distinguish the virus from other pathogens. After the appearance of novel coronavirus, Chinese scientists completed the analysis of the whole genome sequence of novel coronavirus in a very short time, and found the specific nucleic acid sequence in novel coronavirus by comparing with the genome sequences of other species.

If novel coronavirus's specific nucleic acid sequence can be detected in patients' samples during clinical laboratory testing, it should be suggested that patients may be infected by novel coronavirus.
