anyone here from Sydney ?

I am trying to figure out how to get a RT-PCR test in time for my flight on the 6th?

As part of Thailand's current entry requirements, I need a 72 hour RT-PCR test, and for transit through Singapore, need a 48 hour test.

This is all a bit confusing with wait times of tests being up to 2-3 days or more,

any advice on where to get one of these tests and to be sure it will deliver results on time would be really deeply appreciated,

Thankyou!!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user from Sydney is seeking advice on obtaining a timely RT-PCR test to meet the entry requirements for Thailand and transit through Singapore. Comments suggest specific testing locations in Sydney, including 4cyte pathology in North Ryde for results within 22 hours and a clinic at Sydney International Airport (Histopath) that provides results in 90 minutes for travelers flying within 24 hours. Another comment mentions the cost of testing at the airport as $75.

I went to 4cyte pathology in north Ryde. Results back in about 22 hrs. This was yesterday. Once you drive into the road that leads to the testing place (in a car park), staff on the road will check you in/ register you. We then parked on the side and walked down- much quicker than waiting to do drive through.
