Anyone used OnPoint proctored covid testing to get back into US?
Seems to be the cheapest at $14.99 with BYO test kit, or $21.99 for a bundle (+shipping).
I hate the oversize packaging that Emed have

Used Onpoint to return from London to US mid May. No issues. Used the government issued I Health tests and made the appointment before we left the US. We paid a bit more for the proctoring but it seems that they have been discounting the price. We received a coupon for $5 to use for the next use. Received the PDF with results within 15 minutes.

Best news
No more worrying about testing 24 hours prior to flight to US. I haven't been able to determine whether vaccination required or not. Goes into effect Sunday.

AFAIK vaccination is still required for those who aren't USA citizens and are eligible for a CDC/WHO approved vaccine. There are exemptions for small children and those with a documented medical inability to take the vaccine, probably also diplomats, military, etc.

Thread closure
With the announcement of cessation of tests, this thread has (mercifully) become redundant.
