BOTSWANA
Americans are allowed to enter with proof of a negative PCR test taken no more than 72 hours before departure. Those who arrive with symptoms or without a test will have to be quarantined for 10 to 14 days at their own expense, with another test in the second week. Additional testing may be required for interstate travel based on regional requirements. To leave the country, travelers must submit a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours of their scheduled departure. According to the US Embassy in Botswana, test rules are “not clearly published or enforced, so expect inconsistent application of rules and sudden unexplained changes in enforcement.” In addition, the turnaround time of in-country PCR tests does not reliably meet the 72 hours it takes to board a flight to the United States.
BRAZIL
Passengers over 2 years of age arriving by air must have proof in Portuguese, Spanish or English of a negative RT-PCR test completed within 72 hours of their flight and complete a passenger declaration.

Those arriving ashore must have permission from the federal police and a note from the U.S. embassy or consulate and proof of a plane ticket home . Once approved to enter, they must go straight to the airport.
