COVID-19 Drive-Through Testing in Hilo on Saturday, April 11
Premier Medical Group and Bay Clinic with the support of the County of Hawai`i
COVID-19 Task Force will offer a drive-through screening and testing clinic. The one-
day clinic for COVID-19 will be held at Hilo’s Ho`olulu Complex on Saturday, April 11,
from 8:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Access only through the Pi’ilani/Hinano entrance.

will make the determination regarding testing. The screening criteria is based on
guidance of the CDC and the State’s COVID-19 Response Task Force.
People who visit the screening clinic will be asked to show photo ID. Additionally,
people are requested to bring their own pen, and any health insurance cards they have,
