UPDATE – (3:45 p.m.) – The Hawaiʻi Department of Health on Sunday reported 78 new cases of COVID-19 statewide. Four (4) of those new cases were identified on Hawaiʻi island.

On the health department’s zip code area map showing reported COVID-19 cases with onset dates in the past 14 days, the following Hawaiʻi island locations have totals of over 10 cases:

  • 96720 (Hilo) – 30 cases
  • 96783 (Pepeʻekeo) 26 cases
  • 96740 (Kona) – 103 cases
  • 96737 (HOVE) – 14 cases
  • 96738 (Waikoloa) – 23 cases

The health department’s zip code area map has also dropped several “grey areas” that displayed “no data” because the areas had a population of under 1,000. Those low population zip code areas have been incorporated into larger zip code areas. The zip code areas representing numerous small towns along the Hāmākua coast have been combined into two larger swaths (96776 / 96780) and are colored white, indicating there have been no cases of COVID-19 identified in those areas in the last 14 days. Also, a spot in Hōnaunau has been incorporated into the larger South Kona zip code area (96704). The South Kona zip code area is colored light yellow indicating 1 to 10 COVID-19 cases have been identified in residents living in that area in the last 14 days. 

The zip code areas that include Maunakea, Pōhakuloa Training Area and Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park remain grey.
