Green: Hawaii ‘doing OK’ despite recent COVID-19 surge
Although the number of COVID-19 cases statewide is still in triple-digit territory amid a post-holiday surge, case counts seem to be on the decline.
The state Department of Health on Monday reported 172 new cases of COVID-19 in Hawaii, including 20 on the Big Island.
On Jan. 7, the state reported 322 new cases, the highest single-day case count since a surge in August. On Jan. 8, there were 264 news cases.
