I was hoping to get some input..

I am leading a group of Scouts (12 people total) on a trip to US Virgin Islands and we are scheduled to leave July 17.

Found out that USVI is going to start requiring negative swab COVID tests within 72 hours of travel for all travelers from Texas, Arizona and Florida starting July 13.

Based on turn around time should we get the Rapid Antigen test? Additionally any place in San Antonio area where we could get these done? Preferably as a group or at least within a two day window.

All kids have insurance, but I'd pay out of pocket for them if needed. They have worked hard doing fundraisers and planning for over a year.

USVI opened back up June 1 and I had hoped we were home free...

Be sure to verify that an antigen test is accepted. I am needing a PCR test for Alaska and from what I saw in another thread, the rapid test is not a PCR test. I too have 72 hours which means I'll need to find a place open on Sunday and get results by early Wednesday morning before I fly out. I'm sweating it!!!

That's an excellent point... more research. USVI hasn't "officially" made the announcement yet. They will probably wait until the 13th. Oh well!
