It’s the Rapid (NAAT) Molecular Test you need - the “Red” dot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmy4 Posted March 15, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Appears it may be a glitch. I am able to find local testing now after resubmitting info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megr1125 Posted March 15, 2022 #16 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I was just looking around me in NJ and the travel question wasn't there, and the rapid antigen tests that they administer and that were for travel, said not valid for travel. I wonder if the website just flaked out for CVS testing this AM for some reason since it seems like we were all getting similar errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in North Port and there are many appointments available for the next week, including this afternoon. This is for the Rapid NAAT which is accepted by Royal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I even answered no to all the survey questions. At what point did it tell you there was a charge? Wondering if I need to rebook these...

Sarasota area here and plenty of PCR and Red Dot NAAT available. You just have to go a few days out on some locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted March 15, 2022 #23 Share Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) CVS page for local shows several places that say Rapid Result Test - some types accepted for travel. Then for each individual location says Rapid-result test (antigen), then says, Not accepted for travel. Except for one location that shows also Rapid-result test (antigen), but says Accepted for most travel HUH? Strangely, Walgreens shows NO Rapid NAAT testing in Maryland. They are in DE, PA, DC, and VA Edited March 15, 2022 by SRF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not-enough-cruising Posted March 15, 2022 #24 Share Posted March 15, 2022 With the most recent CDC downgrade of the "COVID warning level" on cruise ships to a Level 2, maybe the testing is soon to be forgotten. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lane Hog Posted March 15, 2022 #25 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I suspect more and more of these pop-up rapid testing locations will be shutting down. The CVS location we used for our cruise three weeks ago had no shortage of same-day appointments available, and that was before the downgrades and in a college town where they tend to be more masked and paranoid than the rest of Texas is....
