HONOLULU FIRE DEPARTMENT EXPANDING FREE COVID-19 TESTING TO INCLUDE WAIANAE DISTRICT PARK

On behalf of the City and County of Honolulu, the Honolulu Fire Department (HFD) activated its All-Hazards Incident Management Team to launch its Honolulu Expanded Testing 2021 operation and will be conducting another mass community COVID-19 testing location on the west side of Oahu.

Starting Sunday, September 19, 2021, the HFD will provide free COVID-19 tests in the parking lot area of the Waianae District Park, which is located at 85-601 Farrington Highway in Waianae. Hours of operation are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Sunday until October 31, 2021.

Similar to the testing sites underway at Aloha Stadium and Ewa Mahiko District Park, this newest location will be a drive-through COVID-19 testing site. Appointments are not required. However, the HFD encourages anyone interested in getting tested to pre-register using the link or the QR code shown below. If unable to pre-register, signage with the QR codes will be posted upon entering all testing site locations and participants will have ample time to register before proceeding.

The HFD will be providing the PCR or polymerase chain reaction test for COVID-19, which produces results in approximately 2-3 days, and also provided at the other two locations. City agencies and the Hawaii Air National Guard continue to provide logistical support in this vital effort.
