as long as he's staying on dutch side. Totally different rules if it's french st martin. He would need the testing before hand & if it's positive a letter from his doctor stating when he had covid. Right guys?? He's from orange coded country by the looks of it.

Just get the antigen test rather than the PCR test. Last May, our group of 4 got the PCR test on a Monday. On Tuesday we had three negative results and one positive. On Wednesday, the positive guy went for a rapid antigen test and received a negative result. It's the PCR test that is sensitive enough to produce a positive result long after recovery. It was funny, b/c our local health department kept calling my friend the entire time we were in St Martin!

I believe the up to 90 day discussions are for some severe cases. My wife and I each had a somewhat mild case mid-December and took PCR tests January 4th with negative results. I will admit to being very worried at the time though.
