Interesting Psak: No Friday CoronaVirus Testing

The Beis Din For Medical issues in Bnei Braq recently issued an interesting psak about waiting 48 hours with symptoms before going to get tested for CoronaVirus. The beis din is now following up on that one with another interesting psak.
Mishpacha Newspaper this past Shabbos had an article about a new psak from the Beis Din For Medical Issues in Bnei Braq.
In the new psak the beis din says not to go get tested for CoronaVirus on Friday, in order to prevent unnecessary chilul shabbos. This does NOT apply to anyone who is in a high risk group, either because of illness or age, but people not in a high risk group should not get tested on Fridays - people in high risk groups should get tested right away.
Further, people already tested and waiting for results should NOT answer the phone on Shabbos when the Ministry of Health representative calls.
