We needed a PCR Covid test done within 72 hours prior to entering Canada. We had an appointment at another pharmacy but they told us the tests aren't even picked up for 2-3 days so we got an appointment at this CVS pharmacy right away. We were assured the tests would be picked up that day and we would have the results in 1-2 days so we hit the road and continued our trip with our plan to cross into Canada once we had our results. We were getting closer and closer to the border and no results! 2 days had gone by and we still had not received our results. We ended up looking for a place close to the border and we found a lab that does it on site and you get results in 30 minutes to 5 hours. Yes, we had to pay but we were out of resources. We got tested, had our results in just over 30 minutes. We had the hard copy as well as the results emailed to us. We were in Canada already by the time we got our Covid test results from this CVS location! I am sure it's a nice pharmacy/store but if you want PCR Covid tests for travel, don't count on getting your results back in 1-2 days!
