I know... And if you are stuck in the foreign country (even if it is a paradise like St Maarten) you do everything possible to get home... And it does not matter that in home there are more positive cases (in US) than anywhere in the world, but this positive result (valid or not) prevent you to get on the plane... I think it is time for US to eliminate testing rule for the flights back to US - or at least for those who are vaccinated. Just my opinion.
