Many major airlines have made it mandatory for passengers to provide a negative COVID-19 test to board their aircraft, and some countries have also made it an immigration requirement for entry. As the demand for quick and reliable COVID-19 testing grows in Belize, Dr. D’s Clinic in Caye Caulker has stepped in to provide the service.

Owner, Dr. Dimas Sansorez MD, explained that the clinic began offering COVID-19 rapid antigen testing at the end of January, with several ways to book an appointment, making it more convenient for customers

“The test is easy and only takes 15-20 minutes. A printed copy of results is given to patients for traveling request upon boarding,” Sansorez said.

He noted that customers are also given the peace of mind that the tests are compliant with the standards of the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC).
