Those of you who do make it to the island and business people, here lie Leslie) need to tell the businesses that they need to pressure the government to modify the 72 hour requirement. Currently that makes it impossible for the vast majority of Americans to comply. As others have said, yes health of the islanders is a huge concern, but the Island cant have it both ways. If they really want tourists to come in numbers to sustain the island economy then they need to loosen up the rules.
We have told all of them that that is the problem. There is a finger prick test that gives results in 15 minutes. It's 90% accurate from what we were told. St. Thomas accepted that test. I think those odds are pretty good if they just did the test at the airport vs the risk of contracting within the 72 hours...just my opinion.
