We are scheduled to leave on 3.11.21. My wife and I had COVID in December and she has had two vaccines and I one. PCR tested today and she was negative while I was positive 78 days after initial illness. No symptoms. Ran back down and did antigen testing tonight which is negative. EHAS forms completed and submitted and waiting for a response. Without antigen testing we would be SOL. The PCR testing is so sensitive that it can pick up noninfectious virus particles for weeks but 78 days? I suppose it could be a false positive. I’ll feel better when we get approval emails.

Thanks for sharing sknau. Did your get your test done at a clinic, pharmacy, other? Were the results emailed to you with a pdf attachment that can be used with the EHAS form? Cost?
I’m a pediatrician in Cedar Rapids and can get tests done when I need them. Sorry but I guess it’s one of the benefits of working 40 years and having decades of 80-100 hour weeks. We are packed and take off in six hours. Hoping I ca sleep.
