My daughter is booked to go to Switzerland to spend Christmas with her boyfriend's family. Looks like that is going to be off the table.

Thanks for posting. My Swiss friend said he thought I couldn't come in, but I couldn't find anything online. I'm supposed to leave Sunday Dec 5. When I did this check yesterday, I was all good. Got my Swiss Covid certificate today. Did this test now, and I have to quarantine for 10 days. No public transportation. Thanks for posting. Tomorrow morning I will cancel everything.

Aw. Sorry you're in that situation.

It's frustrating that Western Canada is about as far from where the Canadian cases are as Switzerland is from Mali!

Right? But really, it's popping up everywhere. I'm torn, as I feel safer being home and was stressed about traveling. But also, I was traveling due to a family situation and not fun, so that's the hard part

I follow Swissinfo.ch on Twitter and yesterday they posted "oh, yeah, nevermind. You can come. Just have a test first"

Grrrrrrrr. I cancelled everything Tuesday. Now I'm looking to rebook.

I'm traveling for family reasons, not for fun. This isn't fun
