EHAS stuff...

We had big problems with getting our test results from Walgreens, as I previously posted. Actually didn't have any problems getting our approvals though. Mine came through almost immediately, as soon as I submitted it, and Eric's took about a half hour. I had screwed up and actually submitted mine twice, so I actually got a total of THREE approvals from them and I have been getting two emails every day to report my temperature, which we have been doing. As others have said, it only reports whole numbers.

Looking at my email this morning, I noticed that it said that I needed to report my temperature for the first FIVE days only. This is obviously a change, and it is on the EHAS website now, that you only report for 5 days.

"SELF MONITORING

For travelers originating from a high-risk country, 5 consecutive days of self-monitoring of body temperature and possible flu like symptoms is mandatory. The travelers in this category will receive an automated daily email alert providing a link for submitting the required information online the first 5 days of their stay. If you are remaining for a shorter term on the island, you will have to submit the information for the time you are on the island. Temperature measuring possibilities will also be offered in the lobby in most hotels and other lodging facilities."

I just checked my notice and it also said 5 days and yesterday's said 14. Today was my 5th, so maybe I'm finished. That frees up about 90 seconds a day.

Just one less annoyance to worry about.

We never did our temp checks, I figured that they knew where we were staying and could come get us. No one ever showed up or asked about us, and after three days the emails stopped. All they want is the money. And I wonder why they said FLU like symptoms, why not COVID like symptoms, after all that’s how all of this stuff got started, right? Oh I just remembered, COVID like symptoms is everything under the sun, FLU like symptoms are MORE specific.

Y’all have fun carol, and stay off the French side, that’s COVID headquarters over there. Lol

Fox--we are fully vaccinated, so not worried about going to the French side.

We are too but were still very careful on both sides of island when we were there last month.

We are still careful. The grocery stores, etc, still want full masks. That is fine, keep some in the rental car.

Huge signs going into Marigot from both ends about FREE covid vaccines available..... hopefully they will start getting the idea that it is not bad.

My email this morning also said first five days. I'm on the eighth day and am still getting emails. WTF?
