I'm in Mexico, supposed to leave tomorrow. Got two positive tests and am now quarantining in the room  :blindfold:

ugh, this is why I cancelled my trip this weekend.  Free room/food ?

Hotel is offering 10 days comped. I am the only one in the group of 12 to be positive.

My mom and her husband had planned three weeks at an airbnb after the resort. It has a few extra bedrooms so looks like I'll probably go with them until I can get back in the US. From what I can find you need a negative test or a doctor's note saying you are recovered after 5 days.

Sorry bud. Hope work isn't pissed. OTOH, maybe you can make the best of this. How are you feeling, though?

Kinda meh. Nothing serious but I can tell I'm dragging. Was hoping it was just the copious amounts of sun and booze I have consumed the past few days.

It gets better. My symptoms were worst on day 1, noticeable on day 2, pretty much gone on day 3, although I still have some lingering fatigue and an occasional cough. YMMV.

I imagined it would be like a white collar prison situation.  hopefully can get the negative and bust out soon!

Depending on how desperate you are to come back I’ve heard from multiple people you can purchase a negative test

My co-worker is getting ready to go down there and is under the understanding that booze is not provided in this contingency. You should bring your own.

The resort I went to in October did the same. The places are empty, trying anything to get people down there

One I went to was some outsourced medical facility.  I'm fairly certain a $20 over your nose holes when they took you back would have gotten you a negative.

Oh and I joined the club yesterday.  Felt weird last week (no typical advertised symptoms) but thought it was just post vegas withdrawals.  Roommate started feeling bad this week.  Both took at home test, I was negative.  Decided to get a PCR anyways, popped a positive.  Still zero symptoms.  Figure I'll test again Wednesday, if negative I'm in the clear given those symptoms last week.

our travel restrictions and loopholes are so illogical and pointless.

Agreed.  Kept me from traveling overseas for sure during Omicron.

they aren’t pointless, they’re not effective either though

what is the point, if it isn't efficacy?

One of my buddies is a professional poker player and has some free hotel rooms and other various perks from Atlantis in the Bahamas. We were planning on going in February but have delayed the trip because of all the covid requirements, we dont really want to get stuck there for an extra 5-10 days.

Hopefully late march or early April will be better.

If I don't test positive, I'll be shocked. I feel exactly as I did July 2020 when I had OG 'rona.

I'm triple chipped, and, oddly, day 3 symptoms are worse than days 1&2.

Results in 48-72 business hours. So, I'll probably get results next Monday.

Post how that goes, I'm leaning on using that quite often here in the near future.
