The F is wrong with US??? In EU, in high income countries paid PCR tests is less than 60 euro piece if you need it for something else than for medical reasons. In lower income countries it can be less but probably not less than 40 euro.

These insane prices for anything do have one upside - you can get some miraculous treatments if you have really a lot money. Downside of this is that it does suck talent out of EU that could perform the same treatments here (true story).
