Thats right, if you test positive you will not be allowed to board the plane until you have a negative test. Unfortunately this will impact the tourism even harder.
So those of us that tested positive and still have antibodies, I know because we donate convalescent plasma weekly, COULD still test positive. Then what? A postive test when we are not contagious seems like a money grab. People test positive all the time and retest to be found negagtive. This seems like it is a set up for failure. Smh
Uhh, idk but being stuck in vacation doesn’t seem like that big of a deal? This would be tricky, you'd have to make sure the lab can process your sample in 72 hours.
Taken from the CDC website. For those of us who have had covid take note of the recovery clause: "Air passengers are required to get a viral test (a test for current infection) within the 3 days before their flight to the U.S. departs, and provide written documentation of their laboratory test result (paper or electronic copy) to the airline or provide documentation of having recovered from COVID-19. Airlines must confirm the negative test result for all passengers or documentation of recovery before they board. If a passenger does not provide documentation of a negative test or recovery, or chooses not to take a test, the airline must deny boarding to the passenger."
I assume that a positive antibody test would suffice for documentation of having had it and recovered. Does the CDC have anything about what is required as proof of that?
Cant risk being stuck in Mexico for extended time away from our child thats not going with us. Going to have to cancel our trip.....bummer.
