Another Covid test question

[Marga]

Hi, 

I keep reading posts on this forum saying Emed is allowed or this or that brand is now allowed. 

Just wondering : isn't any brand allowed that meets the requirements of what should be on the certificate?

I am from Europe so over here there is no Emed or other American or Canadian test. I was just planning on taking a video test in my own country. The certificate meets all Te requirements. 

Or am I missing something? Getting worried about this.

Yes, you are correct. Any proctored test, either in person or via video, that produces a certificate that meets Royal's requirements will be accepted.

Yes any brand that meets the requirements are allowed. eMed and the Abbott test were some of the first approved and tried telehealth test, hence why it is the only one listed. The only true not allowed test would be not proctored and lacking any pertinent info.

Any test that has the FDA authorization is allowed, as long as it's proctored and gives you a lab-generated report.
