Has anyone on here had a PCR test in Spain before flying back to England?

Hi. My daughter had one last year at the Medical Centre in the Masa Square. Think is was €55.

Search for a post by Alexandra Moutier-Lebaron who asked this question recently and got several suggestions. I have copied the replies so far in the next posting. Imed and Salvum get mentioned by a few, as well as a girl who says she does them?? In the last post, Alexandra replies that an appointment has been booked in Imed in Elche.

Con la TSE en vigor y si el medico de cabecera lo considera oportuna por sintomas o contacto se la deben citar en su centro de salud. Si es porque quiere hacersela por viaje u otro motivo que no sea el anterior debera acudir a un centro privado.

Si la PCR se la quiere realizar porque tiene síntomas o ha tenido un contacto cercano con un positivo puede hacer uso de la tarjeta sanitaria europea y acudir a un centro de la seguridad social. Sin embargo si la PCR la precisa para volar tendrá que ac… See more

Thanks Aficionado, very useful post and link to their website.
I love the way they don't give you an address but show you a photo of the hospital. Murcia seems a better choice as it's opposite Le Roy Merlin so you could kill two birds with one stone.
It's 110 euros for a result in 12 hours or 150 for a 1 hour turn round.
Very good website.

Check which tests are accepted to fly. Our friends went back two weeks ago and had one of the cheaper tests which were accepted at the airport. 40 e each at a pharmacy at El Raso.
-
Brilliant advice Trident - can you find out more details for us?
-
Ive also been looking into PCR tests on both sides and found it all quite frustrating, there seems no official direction from either government on the best way forward it is like trying to knit fog whilst knee deep in treacle. I suppose at the moment the actual requirements once leisure travel restarts is an unknown quantity with the EU now talking about green cards to travel.

If you get vaccinated then unlikely you will need test, that seems way it’s going to be as Spain, Greece & others pushing this although of course the French are against as so bad at rolling out vaccinations!!

I saw in the news yesterday that France had 24,000 plus new cases against the UK about 6,000 which must show that the speed of the vaccinations in the UK are having the desired effect.
I think it is too early to be concerned with where one can get tested for travel. Brit's are currently banned from entry into Spain. However a solution will soon be found to make entry both safe and affordable as the Spanish economy needs the tourist income.

Are you referring to the Brits that have stayed in Spain below the radar and should have already applied for residency? Others surely should have long returned to the UK having seen the writing on the wall before now.
Derek
-
No it's the 90 out of any 180 days rule. The clock started ticking on 1st January. 90 days takes them to 10 April.
-
Jan= 31 feb=28 march=31 ......1st April
-
That'll teach me to proof read my posts in future. Yes 1st April.
-
All irrelevant now. Cyprus is allowing entry free of any restrictions to anyone from the UK who is fully inoculated from the 1st May (or in our case 17th atm).
-
Just nice timing for my second dose; oh I forgot we are not allowed to travel until the 17th May and I'm not sure there will be flights.
Joking apart it's a step in the right direction and only a matter of time before others follow suit (Greece probably next) and I read yesterday that the Seychelles will very soon admit anybody - vaccinated or not, except from SA - as their vaccination programme is almost complete, although why you would go stay in a hotel where the other guests could be infected I don't know.
It may be easier for Cyprus as they are not in Schengen but the Spanish tourism minister said recently that if the EU could not get it's act together re tourism they would act bilaterally with other countries.
Light at the end of the tunnel.
-
I think this will severely test the EU we all act as one theory, several countries understandably are putting there own economies first. Cyprus are stating that your welcome a week after second jab with no pcr or quarantine required, the proof provided has not yet been mentioned but it will need to be secure otherwise the covidiots will be buying them off eBay and then flying amongst us.
-
Yep I agree with Wilson. I'm all in favour of a vaccine passport so those of us who have had the two doses can go abroad and holiday while all the 'no' brigade can stay at home and infect themselves.

Not a very well thought out comment. What about those that for health reasons cannot have the vaccination. In addition Children will I suppose be excluded!
Derek
-
That's going to be interesting, if your kids aren't vaccinated will they be able to travel abroad ? Don't know when and if they will get round to do the jabs on kids, perhaps not this year even.
-
Please amend my above post - substitute 'no brigade' with 'covidiots (excluding those that cannot have the vaccine for health reasons and children).
:-)
-
Whilst I think the idea of a vaccination passbook is a good idea as I have received my vaccination I can see problems in it being introduced. It is against the law to discriminate so if someone does not want the vaccination is it right for him then to be refused the right to travel. Surely a claim is possible as he has a right to refuse the vaccination and it must be against his human rights to penalise him for exercising his right to say no.
Derek

I haven't looked at the small print Derek but Saga has already said it will require customers on its holidays and cruises to have the vaccination. It will offer refunds to those that won’t. Qantas has also said that passengers can only travel with it if they have had the vaccine when it restarts international flights.
Would reading that encourage me to book a holiday/flight with other like-minded people who take the threat of Covid seriously, dead right it would.

It is interesting because I have just seen on the news the the NHS are having difficulty as some of their nursing staff are refusing to have the vaccinations. Can you add a condition to someone's employment contract or as with Saga add a condition after the contract has been taken out.
As I understood the law is that both parties need to agree to a change in a contract therefore one side cannot vary the terms without the consent of the other party.
I assume that if you wish to impose the requirement that your staff must have the vaccination then the change in the terms of employment entitle the person to redundancy.
One thing for sure it is new territory and it will make a few pounds for the lawyers for sure.
Derek

It’s not discriminatory to not allow people to fly if they wont have a vaccine , it’s probably going to be airline policy and I suspect international law. This whole topic of people not getting vaccinated has a long way to go . There are people out there already suggesting that if someone without the vaccine passes it on to another who dies they are arguing that is manslaughter.
I am nervous of knee jerk reactions but I think in this case the safety of the many is far more important than the personal rights of the few.
I am expecting pubs cinemas theatres etc all to follow suite once they are up and running again ,and to be honest I can’t see any reasons there are for not having a vaccine other than your own health wont allow it
-
Derek if the law is changed to require that all NHS employees have the vaccine then the trusts will have no choice and a change in law will automatically be incorporated in both new and old contracts of employment without the need for negotiations or compensation as the employer has no control . So no it won’t effect redundancies
-
Hi Spurs
The point I am making is that you cannot, as the law currently stands, add a condition (vary its terms) to a contract that has already been entered into. (without the consent of all parties) It is the basic principle of offer and acceptance.
Derek

Was Talking to a ex neighbour in the uk who is a nurse working in the day opp unit and the subject of vaccines came up. She said the nhs staff refusing the vaccine were mainly ones who were looking to start a family in the near future who were worried of any childbirth problems.

Derek I think the legislation passed for Covid last year and the existing emergency powers act can easily ride rough shod over employment law and the human rights act. And let’s be frank with a potential 90% population vaccinated I don’t think any government will be to concerned about employment contracts.
-
Derek yes they can if the govt make it law for NHS staff to be vaccinated it will automatically become part of all new and existing contracts
-
I'm with Derek on this one, I reckon that any employer insisting that their current employees had to have the vaccination to continue in employment would be on a very very sticky wicket.
The lawyers specialising in employment law would have a field day.
A company wishing to do this would need very deep pockets for the awards a tribunal would make to those dismissed or victimised, on saying for businesses with public contact, restaurants/shops, the business gained by having a "safe" environment might make it a worthwhile investment.

It totally depends on if it’s law or not . If the law changes as I suspect it’s going to and it says to work for the NHS you have to be vaccinated, then it’s not optional anymore and would be part of your terms and conditions.
It’s the same as if a new safety way of working was brought in , you would not be able to not do it that way because you were employed before it came in
-
Spurs it's a minefield.
Don't get me wrong, I jumped at the gun for my vaccination and drove 40 miles to get is as soon as possible, I think everyone should have it where medically possible, unfortuantely we don't all think alike!!

John

It is a minefield John . I had my jab Thursday , just hoping we can safely travel this summer
-
As the law stands you can alter any employees terms and conditions but if the employee does accept the new (revised) conditions they can claim redundancy. As I have said before all parties to any agreement must consent to it being changed.
I honestly cannot see how the Government can alter this fundamental principle of English contract law. It will make the lawyers millions in fees. I would put money on the fact this will not happen.
Obviously going forward with new staff you can include any term you want however all terms must be legal and must not discriminate. Even with the likes of Saga there is a risk involved in allowing those who are vaccinated to travel but not others.
I personally would like all travel firms and the NHS to insist that all are vaccinated but within the English law of both contract and discrimination I just cannot see the Government risking it.

Interesting comment. I doubt if a specific way of working in a safe manner would be including in the terms of employment. However if the contract did contain such terms then the contract would be illegal and void (when the law changed). The employee could not be forced to enter into a new contract, as both parties must be allowed to freely enter into any contract and therefore constructive dismissal would be the name of the game. The damages would obviously be the redundancy amount.

NHS contracts currently don’t say that you don’t need a vaccination so if the law is changed and again it’s been mentioned today on the news , then it would be part of your terms and conditions as you would not be allowed to break the law in your job.
Interestingly Galicia region in Spain are now looking at making it a legal requirement to have the Jab for everyone . They are proposing huge fines if you catch it without a vaccination and a €60k fine if you pass it to someone else . Don’t know how that’s gonna go down but I suspect if they do it other regions and countries may follow
-
You cannot rely on a omission to a contract. For example if it failed to stipulate something then that can be assume it to be included. A nonsense. You can see that this will be a very difficult area.
As far as that Spanish Council you refer to unfortunately Councillors tend to dream up ideas and then get them checked out by the legal people which then knocks the idea out. No way can anyone be made to have a vaccination. It would be totally against their human rights.
Providing you have mental capability then you must have the choice surely. I am sure the likes of Hitler would have carried out medical procedures without consent but we have move on a bit since then.
Yes I agree that you would not be allowed to break the law in your job which is why you would be redundant.

They were talking on Sky News this morning and It was clearly stated by the legal guy that if the Govt made it a law for NHS workers to be vaccinated and people who are already in that job refused, they would be in breach of their terms and conditions as any new law is automatically included in your terms and conditions and therefore they would be dismissed not made redundant and a tribunal would decide they had been dismissed for a fair reason .
In Galicia it’s going to be have vaccine or pay €3000 fine
-
It will be interesting. I am not a lawyer so I assume the Sky guy would know his stuff.
Derek
-
It will certainly be interesting because when Matt Hancock was asked if it was going to be compulsory on the Friday press conference he didn’t rule it out ! He chose to give the we want to encourage them all to be vaccinated answer but when pressed he again didn’t say no . So I read that as we will try to push it voluntarily but if not then maybe we will

In the nhs changes to terms and conditions are a routine event. There is a consultation then implementation. Individuals with issues are reviewed and where appropriate alternative or reasonable adjustments are made. If the role undertaken is deemed after assessment to come under the required new terms and conditions then if the employee cannot or will not comply then alternative roles would be offered, refusal of reasonable role offers would eventually lead to individual having no further employment within the organisation. This has been the case for many years. Patient safety is paramount therefore employee demands will never win.
