In India, COVID-19 testing is free in government facilities but can be as expensive as $60 in private laboratories. The poverty level in India means many poor people are priced-out of COVID-19 testing, making it harder to contain the pandemic. In the U.S., people must pay for tests, and one woman’s bill was a shocking $34,927.43 for COVID-19 testing and treatment. In Europe, COVID-19 testing and treatment is free. In Nigeria, testing is free in both public and private laboratories coordinated by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control.
