COVID-19: new fixed testing location in Nice, several mobile sites deployed in the department

Starting this Thursday, to anticipate the increase in the number of COVID-19 cases, the Nice city hall has decided to set up a new PCR testing station located on level -1 of the parking at Place Masséna.

This is the second permanent center opened in the city after the one at Palais des Expositions, which started earlier this month. This new station will allow people to get tested for free, but only by appointment. Priority will be given to healthcare professionals, patients with a prescription, and contact cases who have been approached by CPAM, ARS, or Stop Covid. Appointments must be made via this website: rdv-testcovid.fr or by clicking here. The station will be open from Monday to Friday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., then from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the afternoon, and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. to avoid endless queues that might pose a risk.

All samples will be analyzed by independent accredited laboratories and taken by state-certified nurses. As a reminder, the results are sent to patients by email or mail.

Mobile Testing Outside Nice

To allow all the inhabitants of Alpes-Maritimes to get tested, mobile trucks will travel through the municipalities of the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolis in agreement with the mayors. Tests will be completely free and without requiring a medical prescription or appointment, thanks to the support of accredited laboratories.
