More than 700 participants have taken COVID-19 tests as part of the County of Maui’s free voluntary testing programs, which started Oct. 17.
So far, only one case has been confirmed out of the tests administered. The test is offered for residents and visitors traveling into Maui County.
“This is a free and easy way for our residents and visitors to help keep themselves and our community safe and healthy,” Mayor Michael Victorino said. “Results will be available within an hour. This is a small investment of time to ensure that everyone arrives healthy, stays healthy and returns home healthy.”
Visitors must have taken a pre-departure test to be eligible for the free post-arrival test. Visitors should take the second test 72 hours or later after they arrive into Maui County.
Participants must pre-register for the voluntary tests at www.MinitMed.com. If you have any problems pre-registering, please call (808) 667-6161, ext. 7.
“We thank Minit Medical for partnering with us for this program and supporting our efforts to keep Maui County healthy,” Mayor Victorino said.
