Since the question is not directly related to Coronavirus and Travel I am moving the thread to the USA forum.

Sorry, somehow I got stuck in the Coronavirus and Travel forum and thanks for moving it to the right place!

Easy to overlook these things in the family illness situation you appear to be in.
Yes, thanks, that's ok. One of my kids is already citizen of the EU country too and the other one is an infant. They will both be allowed with us. Quarantine is not necessary if we can bring a negative covid test.

As others note, make certain that the destination country will admit you and also that whatever hospital or facility is housing your close relative will admit you if you do arrive and have not completed any required quarantine.
Thanks for that, very helpful! I will let the doctor know. The relative concerned is the father of my husband, so that would qualify for his grandson to get the passport as far as I know.
