The thing is I will be leaving soon... didn't book the ticket yet. My concern is of course getting tested positive the day before I leave. So is it possible to visit a doctor soon and they could clear me so to speak? But the test results of my positive covid test would been earlier this month though. So would there be any issue on this?


Now if they were to clear me if I visit them the next few days, you saying I don't need to take a covid test the day before I leave then?


If I purchase a jetbliue blue fare... is that good enough to cancel and rebook my flight then? So there is no point of buying travel insurance then right? What is the price difference between booking a Blue Basic fare with a checked bag vs Blue Basic? The thing is I have a carry on and a checked bag. So wouldn't I hace to purchase a blue fare regardless? Well the thing is I am returning back to the US. I am not like going back to Mexico now with my symptoms. But I get what you mean here.
As a general principle, you can't buy insurance to cover an event that has already occurred. You can't buy travel insurance to cover COVID-19 after you have tested positive.
