Baja Sur COVID PCR tests


Does anyone know of a good place for a quick PCR test (required for flights)? The tests I’ve found in Cabo are really expensive.

What is expensive? There will be Canadians all over Baja looking for this so they can go home.

Boy, and I thought $750 in punta abreojos lab was pricey!

Same day results in 60 min or less.





Come visit La Bocana

if this helps anyone, Copied from BPE
The East Cape Health Center offers PCR covid19 testing. We recommend making an appointment for Monday-Friday 9-11am for quickest turnaround time on results. Test results are available in 24-72 hours. Our tests are approved by FDA and COFEPRIS (Mexican FDA) and all covid testing is done with proper safety measures by a certified clinical chemist trained specifically for this type of samples. We do not recommend leaving on a Monday or Tuesday, because the laboratory is closed on Sunday and we cannot guarantee timely results. The cost of the test is 4,800 pesos. For groups of 11 or more, by appointment only, we can offer the test at 4,500 pesos. Please plan for these costs and flight changes should they be needed. Safe travels everyone. eastcapemedical@gmail.com

Can you confirm they do the PCR and/or RT LAMP Tests that Canadians require to get home? A Spanish speaking friend called for me and they said that they do not.
