When is this idiotic testing requirement going to end?

Seriously do we have any dates set?

The time to end it was to never begin it

Inconvenient and worthless as hell to. We just got back from vacation and the testing was a joke. Even if we had Covid, the test would have come back negative because they didn't insert the swab far enough into the nostril. Resorts by in large, are going to do the minimum to get by. They do not want bad publicity, and quite frankly probably think the testing requirement is idiotic as well.

I have two friends that are "stuck" in Scotland for 10 more days because they tested positive. Apparently had some symptoms on the front end of their trip, but none now.

That Americans can be barred from re-entering THEIR COUNTRY is criminal.
What do you boys want for breakfast BBQ ?.....OK Chili.

It has always been dumb. I guess you can fly to north Mexico and just walk across though.

Some friends of mine were in Mexico. He tested positive; she negative. The hotel told the couple, "Here is another covid test. We need you to go up to your room and retest. We need it to be negative in order for you to leave. No one is monitoring who takes this test. Bring us back a negative test."

I'm about to travel internationally and our tour operator has ensured us we will have negative tests when its time to leave. Its a joke.

Its absolutely absurd that we ever started this, let alone that we are still doing it.

Covid is here... this won't stop it. It's ridiculous that I can fly all over the country with nothing but fly back from another country? Now we have an issue.

Some saline nose spray works wonders as well

I'm 10 miles from our southern border so it's a pretty great backup plan.
