Yes and Yes.
Per the Walgreens web site (
https://www.walgreens.com/findcare/covid19/testing#!):- The state of Hawaii requires visitors to quarantine for 14 days upon arrival or provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test, taken within 72 hours of departure. You must schedule an appointment with Walgreens to ensure your documentation is accepted by the state. The Rapid Diagnostic Test (ID NOW) and Diagnostic Lab Test (PCR) provided by Walgreens are nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT). Both types are approved by the state of Hawaii, however the turnaround results time may vary. The Rapid Antigen Test (BinaxNOW) is not an approved test for travel to Hawaii. If you do not receive your results before your trip, follow the pre-travel requirements on the Hawaii Department of Health website: https://hawaiicovid19.com/travel/getting-to-hawaii/ to understand quarantine requirements. For additional information about Walgreens as a trusted testing partner visit: https://hawaiicovid19.com/travel-partners/.
Please note: This requirement only applies to travel to the state of Hawaii from the lower 48 states.
