re: Covid-19 PCR test for travel

I just got three PCR test results in - all taken on Tuesday. The first at a CVS Minute Clinic in Tallahassee, a little over 48 hours for them. It's done at their drive through - you stick the swab up your own nose in (a good ways in) while they watch. The second from Vault (home test kit), it is a spit test and they have someone give you instructions and watch via Zoom. It went out via Fedex on Tuesday, they got it yesterday, results today. The third is a home test kit by Pixel (Labcorp). Do yourself nasal swab (not deep), nobody watches you, shipped Tuesday, they got it Wednesday, results today. So roughly 48 hour turnaround on all 3. I was not going to gamble with only one or two tests.

It's a relief to have the results - I'm catching flights to Amsterdam and then on to Nairobi tomorrow. Kenya has a 96 hour window.
