COVID Test for unvaccinated child when travel to Orlando

[urbiman]

Hi,

fortunately after years of absence my family and I will be able to visit Disneyworld again.
My little one (4 years old at time of travel) is unvaccinated. I understand that it is perfectly fine to visit the US however there is a rule that confuses me. It says we have to do a test after 2-3 days. Does anyone know what’s meant by that? Do I have to go to something like an „official“ Covid test station? And if yes how can I find one?
Any advice is highly appreciated. We will be visiting from Germany.

The CDC seems to say that any bona fide test service would do.
In the U.S., the easiest to book are CVS and Walgreens pharmacies.
They are major chains with multiple locations throughout cities.
You can likely find one near your hotel using it's address.

These are usually done in drive-thru lanes with a drawer and window.

A government website provides other testing resources:

Community-Based Testing Sites for COVID-19

HHS has partnered with pharmacy and retail companies to accelerate testing for more Americans in more communities across the country.

You may need a hardcopy of an appointment from one of these.

Thanks @Talent312 for your extensive answer, very helpful!
Do you think that a Test here https://www.totaltestingsolutions.com/virtual-travel-testing would be also ok? They pretend it is basically the same thing…

Proctored virtual-tests where someone sees you do it is acceptable.
BinaxNow AG kits are commonly used thru emed.com or optum.com
