What are your thoughts on the best places/prices to get a covid test in Athens?

I read that some countries like USA require you to get it before coming back to USA:
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/ea/covid-19-information.html

Effective January 26, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will require all air passengers entering the United States (including U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents) to present a negative COVID-19 test, taken within three calendar days of departure or proof of recovery from the virus within the last 90 days​. Airlines must confirm the negative test result or proof of recovery for all passengers two years of age and over prior to boarding. ​Airlines must deny boarding of passengers who do not provide documentation of a negative test or recovery

I never thought about this problem but it seems like someone could get stuck in limbo if they can't return to the USA but also can't stay in Greece due to reaching their time limit from the medical visa

My gait is almost the same, the recovery is slower than what I expected. I think I'll need a few more months to get back to a normal gait. I remember my gait was getting worsen after 6cm, so if you only lengthen 5-6cm, the recovery would be much faster.

There are hundreds of places you can get the covid test, this is not a problem at all.

Hi Asian, hope you're doing okay

Just random question, May I ask if you got the 10mm nail or 11.5?

Anyways, hope you're recovering good and gait is improving. Excited for your Tibias diary in the future. Appreciate everything bro.
