This is a COVID-19 informational update for Wednesday, January 13^th.

The Hawaii Department of Health reports seven (7) new cases of Coronavirus on Hawaii Island with three (3) persons hospitalized. There have been no deaths reported in the last two weeks.

For your information, covid-19 vaccinations have been occurring throughout our island and distribution will be expanded in the coming week.

The news of the vaccine is very good but please be aware we must rely on the preventive measures in place to keep us safe.

The Island and State of Hawaii remain as one of the safest places to be in the United States. We need to continue to stay healthy with exercise, fresh air, sunlight, cleanliness and social connectedness within the preventive policies of face coverings, distancing, and gatherings. Please accept this kuleana to keep Hawaii safe so we can go through the next several months as safely as possible.

Thank you for listening and have a safe day.
