Operation: Find the Swab
Miami offers more Covid testing options than bad dance moves at a club (though that's a pretty high bar). Here's a breakdown of your undercover intel:
- The Drive-Thru Detective: Feeling fancy? Several pharmacies and government sites offer drive-thru testing. Just roll up, get swabbed, and be on your way faster than you can say "Miami Vice."
- The Masked MinuteClinic Mission: Walk-in clinics like MinuteClinic at CVS offer quick and easy testing. No appointment necessary, just be prepared to share your deepest, darkest allergy secrets (okay, maybe not that deep).
- The Urgent Care Undercover: Got a cough that sounds like a mariachi band with a kazoo player? Head to an urgent care center. They'll likely test you for Covid-19 along with offering treatment for your other ailments (because who needs a full disguise when you can just fight the whole villain squad?).
Important Note: Testing times and availability can change faster than a Miami fashion trend. Be sure to call ahead or check the website of your chosen testing location before heading out.
QuickTip: Skim first, then reread for depth.
**Unmasking the Results
Now that you've bravely faced the swab, the waiting game begins. But fear not, secret agent! Turn that wait into a Miami mojito mission (just maybe not right before your test). Results typically take anywhere from a breezy few hours to a a chill 48 hours, depending on the test type.
Pro Tip: Channel your inner zen master while you wait. After all, stressing won't change the results (and might just give you a real headache).
QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.
