Have you been charged for an unnecessary swine flu test?

Hospitals in the capital are charging patients up to Dh1,000 for often unnecessary swine flu tests, a practice banned in Dubai. Patients have been demanding the tests after hearing of the side-effects of Tamiflu, in order to avoid taking the antiviral drug unless they are definitely infected. However, in most cases even this is unnecessary. The World Health Organisation recommends that otherwise healthy patients who have flu-like symptoms but no other complications need not be treated with antivirals or tested for the virus. Have you been charged for such a test after demanding it in a hospital? Do you think treatment of swine flu in the UAE has been adequate, or is there cause for concern as Winter approaches?
