Title: Lateral Flo Test kits
Post by: frankie on 05 Jan, 2022, 09:11:07 am

These seem to be freely available in UK and I wondered if anyone has tried to get them here?  I'm sure many of us would feel safer if we had access to them here.

Frankie we had friends and relatives bring a few packs over. We bought some previously in Albox approximately €6 each.

Thank you!  Considering there is an unlimited free supply in UK, they are pretty lucky!  If these home kits are 6 Euros each, I wonder how much the PCR tests are? :shocked:

Pcr tests varies  €50 to €100, I’ve seen. My daughter had lateral flow test to get back to Uk, €35! Then 2 day test £50 in Uk.
In many places in the Uk, you can’t get tests as they have run out.

I see UK has now changed it's requirements for entry to UK and testing is no longer necessary apart from lateral flow.
What are Spain asking for from anyone entering the country?

When I went back to UK in September, on return you didn't need tests but you did need a vaccine certificate for two jabs minimum.  I don't think that has changed
