Yes, but each person must have their own account or profile. I login and logout for my profile, and my wife logs in using her profile/account. I have not used the managed profile option under one account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hersheysmother Posted December 22, 2021 #128 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I am looking at purchasing a two pack from Optum for my husband and myself. I heard that if I purchase them, they can only be used for me, so I would have to purchase separately if I want one of them to be for my husband?

You only need to have separate Navica account profile as stated in the post above. eMed doesn't care who bought the tests when you are taking the test. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk928 Posted December 22, 2021 #130 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Can you take the test anytime on the day you are allowed to start testing? So, If the ship is leaving Sunday, can I take this test at 1am on Friday? We are leaving this Sunday and worried there will be long wait times for a proctor with everyone traveling for the holidays, so wanting to do it in the middle of the night. We have a backup plan at Noon on Friday (testing at airport) if there are any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely some other company will emerge and not let eMed have monopoly. and surely they are making more tests. I wish they would have more CVS doing the quick test too. And I wish the 3 day window would come back So far there's a one order limitation on eMed's website but they are still taking orders. We placed our third order for 6 tests on Monday and received it today (Wednesday). This time it was only delayed by 1 day and it has a 11/2022 expiration date. It's good to have as a backup for any international travel. Edited December 22, 2021 by ATL_Miami_Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisin from vegas Posted December 22, 2021 #134 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Just got two new ones in mail today for my 1/29 sailing…. Both expire 10/23/2022… so seems the expiration date problem has been dealt with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeyefrank100 Posted December 23, 2021 #136 Share Posted December 23, 2021 If you are in Ohio, you can go to any public library and get the test kits for free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare L1211 Posted December 26, 2021 #137 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I ordered tests from Optum the morning of 12/23- they have not shipped yet. It’s for a 1/2 cruise. Making alternative plans… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted December 26, 2021 #138 Share Posted December 26, 2021 We tested Christmas Day from our hotel in Miami. First test wait time was, I think around 20 minutes, second was 5 minutes and third was just a couple minutes. Kits were free from our local library, thank you BuckeyeFrank, though they have ran out this week with the omicron surge. Miami had 3 locations open Christmas Day and seemed to have a long list of testing sites. I highly recommend the proctored BinaxNOW test, especially for those flying in 2 or more days pre-cruise.

On 8/12/2021 at 1:15 PM, Jasalth said: Yes their wait times can be long, and even they admit it. But, the closest rapid back up test place is about a 45 min drive each way from my house, and costs $75pp, so 6 tests for $173 with shipping even if I have to have a device "waiting" for 2 hours to get the test done, seems like a no brainer for us! When I can do it at home and finish packing and getting everything ready to go while waiting I will take it! Now.. if I was using it to get back into the US I would feel differently because who wants to waste time ON vacation! To the testing facility -- HIRE MORE PEOPLE!!!! IF, a business knows their service is slow, why not put a few more out of work Americans TO WORK???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac21902 Posted January 6, 2022 #141 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I purchased a box of 6 from emed and it was approved, overnighted and arrived yesterday. We sail on Sat 1/8 and I had appointments booked as back up if needed. I was worried since we had 6 tests and 6 people that I would run into an issue and need my back up appointments at CVS but none at all. We all tested negative and were completed very quickly. From start to finish each person was about 20 -25 mins. It was perfect 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tattoos Posted January 8, 2022 #149 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I live in south Florida and just picked up two free test kits at a drive through park near my home that was distributed by Palm Beach County to residents. I had to wait in line for an hour but it was worth it. The kits have an expiration date of 11/2022. Is any other State besides Florida distributing free Covid-19 test kits?

In Colorado they will send them out through the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. We can get two boxes containing two tests at a time, and re-order as needed. They are the OTC tests, not the proctored ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
