| Large gatherings are the primary cause of COVID-19 clusters. To demonstrate how to gather safely with ‘ohana, friends, and coworkers, the Hawai‘i Department of Health has produced a new campaign called “How to Gather. For Real.”
Two public service announcements — one focusing on gatherings with family and friends and the other on workplace gatherings —began airing this week on TV, radio, online, in print, and on social media. They depict real-life scenarios and tips that we can all use to gather and interact with others, without compromising community health or Hawai‘i’s path to reopening.
To help drive the message home, the Department of Health enlisted the support of local personalities: Chelei Kahalewai, a content creator, known as @alohaitschelei on social media channels such as Instagram and TikTok, shares tips about celebrating her aunty’s birthday in a new way in the first spot. Daryl Bonilla, an actor and stand-up comedian who enjoys entertaining audiences with his local-style humor, is featured in the second spot about safe workplace gatherings features. |
