Pharmacy in Rome on a Sunday for COVID testing?

[Mflem1278]

We will arrive on Sunday morning October 30 for a Princess cruise embarking on Monday the 31st.  We will be in flight all day Saturday the 29th.

 

Does anyone know if pharmacies are usually open on Sunday?  I know they have plenty of pharmacies and I know they do COVID testing - it is the Sunday part that I am worried about.

 

Looks like we might to have do Rapid PCR testing on Friday here in the stats before we get on the plane Saturday in order to compliant with Greece.

 

Anyone with actual knowledge on the pharmacy situation in Rome on Sunday, please reply.  THANK YOU

I just did a Google search and came up with several answers-I copied a couple of them. We will be needing a test on Sunday also so glad you asked the question.

 

 

Hi, I just got back from Rome on Monday. My hotel near Piazza Navona found a pharmacy open on Sunday for the rapid test for USA at 246 Via del Corso, near Piazza Venizia. They open at 10:15 AM until 5 PM. Euro 22.00 and results in 25 minutes.

Pharmacies have weekly shifts so that one per district will be open on Sunday; but you should not assume all pharmacies will take covid tests - my guess is that in Florence only half of them do - so be careful to arrange the thing in advance, do not leave it to the last minute. Some private medical practices work on Sunday tests, but again arrange the thing in advance.

we booked our tests with this company in advance so there is no long waiting in line and you will receive a booking confirmation. This is an antigen test and you will receive results within 60 minutes, if not sooner.  you will receive a voucher to bring with you to the appt.
