On today’s update of COVID-19, the number of new active cases, on Hawaii Island, reported and monitored by the Department of Health is five (5). At this date, for Hawaii Island, two (2) are hospitalized. A total of forty-nine (49) deaths have been reported on Hawaii Island.

As case counts continue to increase across the Nation it is apparent that we need to do what we can to keep the number of positive cases low on Hawaii Island. Please accept the kuleana of wearing your facemasks, keeping a safe distance from others, and not gathering in groups larger than 10 persons.

On testing for tomorrow, Saturday, three District Tests, which are open to the public, are scheduled. One in Hilo at the Afook-Chinen Auditorium from 8 in the morning ‘til noon, one in North Kona at the West Hawaii Civic Center from 9 in the morning ‘til 1 in the afternoon, and one in Puna at Keaau High School from 1 in the afternoon ‘til 5 in the afternoon.

Thank you for listening and have a safe Aloha Friday.
