For US$30, visitors can get tested at hotels in Varadero, Cayo Coco, Cayo Santa Maria and Holguin. The fee is payable only by credit card or debit /VISA. Cash payments will not be accepted.
“It’s great news that Cuba can offer this convenience to all Canadians visiting our beautiful country,” said Lessner Gomez, Director of the Cuba Tourist Board in Toronto. “Cuba has a world-class health system and the highest doctor/patient ratio in the world – three times more than Canada. We are totally ready to accommodate increased testing.”
