Bill would mandate disclosure of COVID-19 cases at Hawaii public schools
A bill that would require the Department of Education to publish a weekly report on schools that have COVID-19 cases among students and staff will get its first hearing today in the Senate.
The department currently posts a weekly tally of such cases broken down by complex area but not by individual school. A complex area is made up of two or three high schools and their feeder lower schools.
The proposed new report would name the school, the date the COVID-19 test result was reported to the school and when the individual was last on campus. It would cover cases among students, staff members and “affiliated individuals.”
