Covid Testing

Entry into Canada requires either a rapid test (professional administered or observed) within 24h or a molecular test (NAAT or PCR) done with 72h.

  • Curative (Convention Center) is open 10am-6pm, has rapid molecular (NAAT) tests available on Friday which promises a 2h turnaround. Only that location, the others are PCR. Curative bills insurance, but insurance is technically not required to cover it if you say it’s for for travel
  • UW Medicine charges your insurance and you have to provide some reason (e.g., "possible exposure")
  • Kaiser Perm offers members free PCR testing, and explicitly says it it is free for travel proof purposes

Cars

  • Team Subaru( N+H+K): 1: departing Friday 2: picking Kurt up at Vancouver airport sat early 3: planning to ski sat
  • Team Honda
