Or you buy the ones I mentioned where you do the test over FaceTime etc. and then the results are sent to you via the linked account
Just a fucking cash grab

Well we're going to Iceland in two months where rapid tests are supposedly given out for free but we're going to fork over about $90 for extra "quarantine insurance".
So win for insurance companies and hotels.

Yea, I’ve got 3 overlapping insurance policies for travel and I still had to fork over $80 for wife and I to get quarantine coverage for Mexico. They are lapping it up

when you have multiple insurance policies for travel like that, do all of them try to avoid paying out and point the finger to the other insurance agency?
i always thought it was best to have just 1 policy to avoid the infighting.

Luckily I’ve never had to use them but the RBC avion actually had quite good reviews when it comes to their insurance response so usually if I’m booking travel I’ll book it on that card

I have a really nutty Avion insurance story, not going to rehash the whole thing but it comes down to me saying thanks RBC for writing off that new vacuum and my truck insurance for the year. LOL, I tried so hard to pay it so many phone calls, no dice and the charges are gone forever.
My brother in law has used the avion insurance to replace shirts he shrunk in the dryer, they cover so much.

Who did you go with? I see ones for PBC and Manulife quoted often.

Work policy does not cover quarantine and neither does my CC. Only Emergency Medical.

They would probably take the credit despite not really moving the needle.

980 had the GM of both the tap house restaurants and he said they are getting rid of them completely for all front and back house staff.
Westopher can start spitting in my food again!
Anyone federally regulated will likely still require them. What I find super annoying is not requiring them at a “work space” but then stil requiring them to move about the office. It’s pointless.
I’m flying out Tom morning at 930 am..I wonder if the airport will not require them?..

I think it is common practice for governments/police/etc. to release some 'confidential' summary to the press before formal announcements. Then they write an article and as soon as presser is finished, it's posted.

my petty side hopes the PJ party is over for the WFH lotto winners
now we just need a huge amazon strike to get people back out spending their gains at the brick and mortars.

Yeah, but that article was posted 5 hours before the presser haha Someone violated the "confidential" part of the summary?
