As the Covid-19 epidemic affects more and more people in France, the queues to get tested lie down in pharmacies.

In front of a laboratory in Strasbourg (Bas-Rhin) Saturday, December 25, even on Christmas Day, many French people are going to get tested. Some take precautions before reuniting with family, others need the result of this test to travel. “I already have the third dose, but I have to do the PCR test to return to Italy”, says a man who waits in the queue.

In Mulhouse (Haut-Rhin), in front of a duty pharmacy, many customers come to be tested: some need to be tested negative to visit relatives in Ehpad, others to return to work. If they do not have access to pharmacy tests, there are other alternatives for the French. They can also buy self-tests. They are sold at 5.20 euros each and it is possible to make it at home.
