Getting a COVID-19 PCR Test at Home

I previously posted about Wara Hospital since I used their drive-thru PCR test service but last week they introduced an even more convenient option, a home service. Like with their drive-thru, you’re going to have to pay a premium for the convenience of having them come over to your house to give you a swab test. The price? KD55.

I’d rather do the cheaper drive-thru but if you don’t have a car or for some reason can’t leave the house (maybe you’re under quarantine), this could be an option. Link

I did mine in Dar Alshifa Hospital, its drive thru service but damn busy I waited 2 hrs in line. The next day I sent my office workers they went at 9 am. It took them less than half an hour to do it because they went early.

At KD 55 it is a bit much.
Quite frankly, it’s bordering on highway robbery. The government ought to bring in price capping for Covid testing since this is a humanitarian crisis.
