Hi Folks, does anyone know where non residents can get a covid test now that a negative test is required for entry to the UK?
Many thanks,
John.

I may be wrong, but I believe the tests available via the link provided are for Spanish residents, whereas John is requesting details for a non resident.

Yes, it is an important distinction. We are both in our '70's and are non residents. Because of travel restrictions we can't go back to our own country to get the vaccine and can't register with a doctor because we are non residents. Catch 22. I understand that to get the vaccine you musx be registered with a doctor. Anyone know how we can get on a list for the vaccine under our circumstances? Would be very helpful to hear any positive news. Thank you.
I have had my test 20 euros for rapid antigen test (waited 5 mins collect on day)
Meets more than governments rates
It is
For the antigen test
The test has a sensitivity of 95.4% (our governments requirement 80%)
and a specificity of 100% (our governments requirement 97%)
with accuracy of 98.91%
https://cardiosalus.com/prueba-covid-murcia/
Easy to book online a test with lots of times to choose from.
Once I have landed in the UK and got thought with this test will let you know all OK
back in uk ok
Yes went from Alicante airport at checking in desk they wrote in the boarding pass. PCR Ok
At Gatwick airport at boarder control checked my antigen test and let me through
So the 20 euro antigen test worked.

Thanks for this information Tara but it is the vaccine I am enquiring about, not the test. I wanted to know how a non resident can get the vaccine if they can't register with a doctor here and can't return to their own country yet. Does anyone know of a legal way around this conundrum? Glad to hear you were able to get the test and it does sound like a great value one too, I haven't heard of any that cost on 20Eu.
