That makes things a little easier since I'm due to leave next week for Sao Paulo.

Would the at-home United tests satisfy this new requirement? https://www.emed.com/airline-travel

What about the vaccination proof once you are there? Or the local "passport" I heard SP or RJ was instituting?

Vaccination doesn't prevent you from infecting Covid.  It help preventing serious symptoms and hospitalizations.

So you may test positive and can spread virus even though you have been vaccinated.

You would bring your formal attestation cards/certificates with your name, dob, vaxx product and dose dates, etc, along with matching ID, in the event this is required. Easier than figuring out what location mandates what requirements. What could be simpler? Anyone not fully vaccinated or bringing such documents must be off their trolley. You might not need for boarding or entry, but venues there likely have no way of scanning digital matrix codes, etc.

The problem is that in the US, our "attestation" is a 10-cent card that the lab tech handwrote in. No picture, no lamination, no official-looking stamp (very popular overseas). I'm worried these would get rejected. I certainly would if I were serious about keeping out the unvaccinated.
