Actually, mass confusion ... the USA entry requirement does allow for a rapid antigen test, but good luck matching up the product used abroad with the ‘qualifying test’ criteria. There are already 69 antigen tests authorized. The US is also widely criticized by experts for allowing antigen test results, in general less sensitive compared to the NAAT category (nucleic acid amplification) that is delineated as one of the two options ... RT-PCR satisfies the NAAT option.
Antigen tests at point of care are useful in congregate settings in order to quickly assess infection and recovery. Often a RT-PCR test is also used for confirmation, but results turnaround is longer.
Apologies for earlier dismissing the rapid antigen category for USA specifically, but unless you are a master of test assays, the RT-PCR is the better choice, lest as well the CDC pulls the plug and disqualifies the (rapid) antigen option, in keeping with the global trend.
Moreover, the CDC has removed the word ‘rapid’ from the antigen test taxonomy because some antigen tests may be done at point of care (ie, rapidly) and others are laboratory based with turnaround more consistent with RT-PCR. The CDC does not specify whether a point-of-care antigen test is inferior or disqualifiable relative to a lab-reviewed antigen test.
Isn’t this fun?
It’s so fun!
yeah all of this lack of clarity is super frustrating. Dedicated to being as safe as possible and following the guidelines as much as possible. That’s of course made difficult when the guidelines themselves are unclear.

Trying to plan a quick trip out to Rio soon. It's been too long, and y'all's experiences there during COVID have been encouraging. Anyone currently in Rio or going soon have a plan for getting the negative COVID test soon to be needed to enter the U.S.? Any recommendations on rapid test places in Rio good for non-Brazilians?

Not that I am advocating for anyone to engage in sex with anyone under 18, however, the restriction for U.S. citizens pertains to prostitution specifically. It is illegal for a U.S. citizen to *pay* anyone under 18 for sex regardless of country or local law.

I'm lazy, either Grindr or Mileroticos
hahahaha. I’m 100% with you on that. Sometimes carrying that initial conversation on Grindr is too much for me.

I usually am willing to go as high as 1000 pesos...but I like the average chacal(#rough top#bad boy#gansta#abusive#pig) looking guy, Normal price for my type 500-800 pesos. And I like them to come to my hotel and drink, talk for awhile before sex. I hate 45min or by the hour guys.
Many Colombians, Cubans and Venezuela guys asking in the 1400-2000 pesos range.
If you cruise the hustler area on the street, standard price is 500 pesos.
@floridarob Do you typically pick up guys in the hustler area or grindr, etc?

@AdamSmith, I appreciate you checking how the interaction may be different between folks of skin tones. This whole thing is way too weird. I don’t entirely believe Jussie, but I don’t entirely believe the police (particularly CPD, which has fabricated evidence in the past). I also just don’t believe the brothers. Who easily could have both accepted money from Smollett for his workouts, and beat him up because they had a dispute and used racism as their cover, and then threw Jussie under the bus. It’s all so weird.

I keep missing you. I'll be back November as well but not those dates.
I’m missing you all as well and would have loved for a chance to connect. I’ll be in Rio 14th - 18th. @numazu1when will you be in Brazil? Would you be in rio?
-
Thank you all for the advice so far! I certainly wouldn’t go to someone else’s place, but had seen other members mentioning brining guys to their place while taking proper precautions. Certainly agree it’s probably best to stick to saunas for first solo trip.

Hey y'all,
This will be my fifth time hitting Brazil, but first time really going for the fun and action everyone's detailed here. I'm excited to report back and add to the conversation, but wanted to come to you all for wisdom. Firstly, I'm choosing between hotel and airbnb. If I wanted to bring a guy back from grindr (and abide by all the safety tips I've seen here) are there particular hotels anyone knows of that have great/not too stringent or judgmental guest policies?
Would you recommend an airbnb over hotel? I feel like the hotel is safer particularly with this being my first time traveling to Rio alone. Lastly if I just take someone to a sex motel, are there any in particular you recommend?
Other question: Any particular advice on finding/picking up younger twinks? Are there any particular saunas that are better than others or any other options? They don't have to be effeminate. I just like em smaller and younger
Thank you all for your help. I apologize in advance for any future questions - I try to search through the threads first for clearer answers. I'm excited to report back!

Love it! Can't wait for more. Definitely making sure I make return to Rio asap because of you.

One last thing from this video, a shot of one of the hunks. If you ever have to imagine what Gabriel looks like, he may look like this (with way more muscle):
I am truly jealous of your connection to Gabriel if he looks like this gentleman here. Absolutely the pinnacle (in my opinion and taste) of Brazilian beauty and the mixed genes.

Continue or no?
Please continue! I've just read your other posts and it has me so excited for trips back to Brazil. I've been a few times since studying there for some time during college, but only on my last trip a year ago did I visit a sauna. But reading your detailed posts of different cities and towns in Brazil are awesome. Looking forward to reading about this journey!

Thank you for sharing this new site! It's going to be very helpful

Privacy should always be extremely important and considered deeply before these new policies.

I'm not sure what to think/expect/believe about Omarosa's new book considering she worked for the admin and probably wouldn't have written or released a book if she still did.

I agree speaking portuguese is a huge plus, but overall does not seem like prices have gone up much.

This is a significant move! As a fan this makes me happy to see and gives me hope they're moving towards being more inclusive.

Thank you for this update! I know a lot of things have to change in the wake of this current nonsense.
