On today’s report of COVID-19, the total number of people tested positive for Hawaii Island is 39. From this, 28 have been cleared and recovered by the Department of Health, and the remaining 11 are quarantined at home and closely monitored by your Department of Health.
The past week has shown a large increase of people tested positive for Hawaii Island. This increase is mainly the result of fast food establishment employee contact with fellow employees and family. Establishment has closed since notification of a positive test result and remains closed. The Department of Health is continuing the investigation and states that exposure to customers are unlikely due to previously implemented physical and procedural barriers made by the establishment. All family and employees who have tested positive are in isolation and quarantine at home.
Remember, to keep yourself physically and emotionally healthy as best as you can. Take care of your Kapuna, wear your masks and be well.
