Oh, sorry, it's the SXM 'official' facebook page. There's nothing on the EHAS page yet.
As of January 1, if you are unvaccinated, you have to have a PCR test within 48 hours. If you are double vaccinated, you have to have a PCR test within 48 hours, or an antigen test within 24 hours. If you are double vaccinated and boosted, no test. Those 17 and under who are double vaccinated can enter without a test, even without a booster.

No, if you are required to have a test, you have to have your test results to upload, in order to get approval.

It is stressful, doing the testing beforehand. You're sure you have to have a test? Not boosted?

So if you aree fully vaccinated (with a booster) there really is no change???? Just upload your vax records up to 3 days before? According to the CDC, fully vaccinated does NOT currently require a booster, just the two shots or one of the J & J. Sadly, another moving of the goalposts that will likely take me out of the market to travel to SXM. Between their government and ours, I am done playing the game of "what do I have to do to travel". Let's make some new rules and move the goalposts yet again.

I think as far as SXM is concerned, if you have three shots, or J & J plus a booster, they don't care how far apart they were.
As far as SXM changing rules, they have changed things too often, with too little notice, to allow people to plan. Very like when they shut down in March last year, with absolutely NO concern for tourists who had to scramble to try to get back home. I wouldn't presume to speak for JD, but that has to really stick in anyone's craw, that had to scramble, just to try to get home.

Yes, I was there in March 2020 and got to be a part of the debacle trying to get out. I have ZERO trust in their government and the same with ours. Pretty much, likely game over for me.
Posting changes via Facebook is a pi$$ poor way to run a country and a government.

"Posting changes via Facebook is a pi$$ poor way to run a country and a government." It's also on their official site too. AFTER it was posted on Facebook. Their "Official" site often lags well behind their social media postings.

Very sorry to hear of your husband’s reaction to the second shot. And he is so young and healthy. Thank you for your kind words. Trust me, I feel horrible for him. He works out 5 days a week, eats healthy and tries to do everything to stay healthy, but then this happens. Hopefully the inflammatory protein in his body that’s causing the problems disappears over time. The Doctors are thinking this is the most likely scenario.

There are rapid testing times available in Bethel CT on the 4th. This looks right next to Danbury and being a rapid antigen you should get your results in about 30 minutes. They have appointments starting around 10:30am and running until about 6:30pm on the 4th.
Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁
