We are chartering in St. Thomas at the end of March. They require an antigen or PCR test within 5 days of arrival. I have the home antigen test but haven't taken it. My question is what do I physically present to the authorities to show I am in compliance? How will they know it was taken within the prescribed time frame? Is there someone out there who has gone through this procedure than can enlighten me?
When you go to a lab, they date the time the SAMPLE was collected.
Most places it is a SAMPLE taken within X days or X hours, not results within x days or hours.
Don’t wig out, I’m a delivery guy and have had so many tests, I’m almost use to it. Spend some time on Google and find a lab. The fewer people between you and the folks who process it, the better.
