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")
