My family is vaccinated and sailing 9/19. We will be at WDW pre-cruise, so my plan was to test with emed at midnight on 9/17, so it’s done and over with before we head to parks.
But, I just noticed this in the emed FAQ:
The eMed Lab Report timestamps your test time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which may not be your local time zone. You may search online to find the corresponding UTC to your local time zone if you would like to verify the local time on your Med Lab
Report. We provide you with the continental U.S. time zones and their corresponding UTC for your convenience. We are currently in Daylight Savings Time in parts of
the U.S. therefore:
the Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) corresponding to Coordinated Universal Time is minus four hours (-04:00)
Does this mean I could test at 8pm EST on 9/16 and still have my result dated 9/17, and acceptable for my 9/19 sailing? Has anyone tried it before? We sure would like to have the extra sleep!
