Yes—and since I did my dissertation partly to ask the question of how valuable it would be to reduce that delay, I feel compelled to note that the CDC’s syndromic surveillance data is at T+2 weeks, which isn’t actually based on diagnosis, but symptoms. The NREVSS lab test data used to be at T+4 weeks instead—but that seems to have changed to T+2 weeks now, as you note, evidently because (I will rashly conclude based on insufficient additional recent checking but lots of my research from 5 years ago,) the actually delays are almost all administrative, not technical! (Also, it’s super hard to do value of information in systems like this, as my dissertation concluded.)
