We had 6 people testing so did it in 2 waves. 3 people in different parts of the house tested at the same time on different devices and then the second set went. Worked great! That would be convenient since we have 7 in our next cruise. I'd asked our proctor for my Thanksgiving morning test that question, though, and got a very definite "No".

cltnccruisers Posted December 24, 2021 #79 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I see Optum has not raised the price of a 3-pack. Still $99.99 as it was in September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again! Either. It only takes a few minutes to set up the account. It makes things go a little faster if you set it up in advance, but you don't need to.

But if each person has their own device in different parts of the house and called in on their device and did it. How would they know? Worked for us and we will be doing it again in February.

cltnccruisers Posted December 24, 2021 #83 Share Posted December 24, 2021 How has the quality control been on the tests lately? A few months ago there were comments about empty bottles and missing pieces, but I haven't seen anything for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early on the instructions were to download the Navica app and set up users there. Then when connecting to emed you were prompted for your Navica credentials. That was back in September. When we tested live in November the option to add an account on emed was available. It could have been there in September but I don't recall seeing it. Anyway, tomorrow the daughters and boyfriend will be here and I plan to go over all this with them and set up account on emed, bypassing Navica.

As best as I can tell, it really isn't necessary unless you want to use it to show your results to someone or use a QR code. You don't need it to show your results, though, as you receive a PDF copy via email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People , take care of your health and the health of others. Get vaccinated and soon we will no longer have these kinds of problems.
