Military to provide health care to civilians affected by Red Hill water

TL;DR - The Defense Health Agency announced Monday that it will begin evaluating — and potentially providing medical treatment to — civilians affected by the Red Hill water crisis from now until March 10 on a “space available” basis.

The military officially opened its Red Hill Clinic at Branch Health Clinic Makalapa on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in January to evaluate people reporting ongoing symptoms after exposure to fuel-contaminated water after jet fuel from the Navy’s Red Hill fuel storage facility tainted the service’s Oahu water system in November 2021.
