The state Department of Health reports that there were 69 additional COVID-19 cases in Hawai‘i on Friday.
There were 68 cases identified as confirmed, two probable cases were added to the count, and one probable case was removed.
The confirmed cases included: 36 on O‘ahu (+1 probable); 10 on Hawai‘i Island (-1 probable); seven on Kaua‘i; three on Maui (+1 probable); and 12 in Hawai‘i residents diagnosed while out of state.
There were a total of 632 cases logged over the past two weeks in the state of Hawaiʻi, 55 of them in Maui County.
Maui’s 14-day average for new COVID-19 cases is four and test positivity rate over the same period is 1.3%.
Hawai‘i’s COVID-19 deaths remained unchanged at 519, with no new deaths reported today.
The state began adding probable cases to the daily counts on May 18, 2021. The department reports that going forward, both newly reported confirmed and probable cases will be included in the total case counts for the state.The DOH says probable cases were previously reported in a separate table, but says including them in the counts going forward “will provide a more complete picture of disease activity in Hawaiʻi.” Department officials say probable cases that are later confirmed will not be counted twice, rather they will be recategorized from probable to confirmed. Probable cases are defined as those that either have a positive antigen test result (without a follow-up confirmatory test) or were symptomatic and had a known exposure but did not get tested.
There are three individuals hospitalized in Maui County with COVID-19, according to counts last updated on July 8, 2021, from the Hawaiʻi Emergency Management Agency.
There are 14 ICU beds being used in Maui County at this time (out of 31 currently available). One of the ICU beds is being used by COVID-19 patients. Six ventilators (out of 38 available) are being used in Maui County, with one being used by a COVID-19 patient.
Through July 9, 2021, an estimated 1,706,288 doses of vaccine have been administered statewide. The state’s total population is 1,415,857. The DOH reports that 64.8% of the state population has had one dose of vaccination, and 58.3% have completed full vaccination.

The only other areas in the medium yellow category (11-50 cases over two weeks) are Lahaina with 11 cases and Kahului with 14 cases.
Other areas of Maui Island have low rates of infection ranging from 0-10 cases over two weeks. The new cases today bring the cumulative total of cases to 36,481 confirmed statewide, reported since Feb. 28, 2020.
The cumulative total of cases in Maui County is 4,074 confirmed cases over the course of the pandemic. To date, there have been 56 confirmed cases on the island Molokaʻi, 112 on Lāna‘i and 3,906 on Maui.
There are 4,074 confirmed cases documented in Maui County over the course of the pandemic, plus an additional 850 probable cases, bringing the total cases attributed to the county to 4,924.
The state Department of Health has now lumped the probable and actual cases classified by zip code. The new totals are: Kahului (1161), followed by Lahaina (1049), Wailuku (1006), Kīhei (721), Makawao (263), Haʻikū (160), Lānaʻi (115), Kula (101), Molokaʻi (80), Spreckelsville (65), and Hāna (20).

Maui Island: 3,906 (three; 55 within last 14 days; 285 required hospitalization; 57 deaths; 823 probable)
Molokaʻi: 56 (0 new; 0 within last 14 days; one required hospitalization; 0 deaths; 24 probable)
Lāna‘i: 112 (0 new; 0 within last 14 days; five required hospitalization; 0 deaths; three probable)
Pending: 0
Residents diagnosed outside of Hawaiʻi: 1,373 (12 new; no data is available for cases within last 14 days; 13 required hospitalization; and three deaths; 58 probable)
**The state Department of Health says “using cases reported in the past 14 days provides a rough approximation of the number of cases currently meeting criteria for isolation. This proxy number for “active cases” resolves classification issues for cases unable to be reached or who are out of jurisdiction, for whom precise release from isolation date may not be possible to determine. It is also not influenced by lags in data entry.”
Cluster report: Updated Weekly (July 8, 2021)
The state Department of Health released its updated weekly cluster report, detailing information on COVID-19 cases in certain settings.

The cluster report, which covers the period through July 8, 2021, identified just two active clusters in Maui County. There’s one cluster in an educational setting that includes six cases–three that were associated with the primary setting. The other cluster is at a place of worship, where eight cases are under investigation–all occurring within the primary setting.
The report does not show how many of the infected individuals have recovered. While general categories have been identified, health officials have said that they don’t typically identify specific locations of clusters unless there is an “imminent health threat.”
To date, there have been 519 COVID-19 related deaths in Hawaiʻi including: 402 on Oʻahu, 57 in Maui County, 55 on Hawaiʻi Island, two on Kauaʻi and three deaths in residents diagnosed while out-of-state including one of an elderly Kaua‘i resident who died out of state, in Arizona, and another involving a male between the ages of 60-69 years old with underlying medical conditions who had been incarcerated out of state and died at a hospital.
Scroll down for a list of prior COVID-19 related deaths.
Cases with onset in the last 14 days have been in all areas of Maui except for the East Maui town of Hāna, the islands of Lānaʻi and Molokaʻi, and Kula according to DOH mapping.
The island of Molokaʻi was added back to the active map on Feb. 11, with a new case reported at the time, additional new cases were reported on: Feb. 15 and 18; March 12, 18, 21, 22 and 24; April 15 and 23; May 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 21, 23, 25, and 28; and June 25; bringing the island wide total to 56 confirmed cases.
On Lānaʻi, 105 infections were associated with the outbreak, first reported on Oct. 20, 2020. Large social gatherings and household transmission have been identified as the main drivers of this outbreak. A safer-at-home order concluded on Nov. 30, 2020, and the island returned to an act-with-care status as of Dec. 1, 2020. Lānaʻi had new cases reported on Jan. 28, Feb. 5 and 6, March 17, 23, and 31, and May 7, 2021, for a total of 112 cases to date confirmed cases.
Beginning July 8, 2021, the state is now accepting proof of vaccination through the Safe Travels program, for domestic travel including trans-Pacific travelers vaccinated in the US and traveling from the continental US, Alaska and the US territories to Hawaiʻi.
Social gatherings: 25 will be allowed indoors and 75 allowed outdoors
Restaurants: Up to 75% capacity (with maximum groups size of 25 indoors and 75 outdoors)
**NOTE: Statewide vaccination goals will not affect the counties’ COVID-19 policies regarding structured events, weddings, etc. This applies only to travel, social gatherings, and restaurants.
At 70% Vaccination Rate, Safe Travels Ends
When the state’s fully vaccinated rate reaches 70%, ALL restrictions on travel will be lifted and the Safe Travels program will end. Gov. Ige said that at this benchmark, he plans to drop the indoor mask mandate as well.

Hawai‘i Inter-County Travel Restrictions Lifted June 15
On Tuesday, June 15, the state of Hawaiʻi ended restrictions on inter-county travel. “There will be no testing and no quarantine requirements for inter-county travel,” said Gov. Ige. All inter-island travel restrictions were dropped. Those who are in quarantine will not be able to travel.
Also beginning on June 15, a quarantine exemption went into effect for incoming travelers to the state who are verified to have been vaccinated in Hawaiʻi. If travelers have been vaccinated in Hawaiʻi, and the state can verify that, they are now able to bypass quarantine without a pre-travel test when returning to Hawaiʻi from the mainland.
Hawai‘i Mask Mandate Lifted for Outdoors
As of May 25, 2021, Hawaiʻi’s mask mandate has been lifted for outdoors, but remains in place for indoors. When outdoors, people are still encouraged to mask up when in large groups of 10 people or more. Governor David Ige also announced he is lifting the suspension on ocean sports competitions as of June 1 to allow events such as surfing, canoe paddling, and swimming.
Maui Mandatory Secondary Test Upon Arrival for Trans-Pacific Flights Ends June 4, 2021
The post arrival rapid testing at Kahului Airport concluded on June 4 after one full month of operation. Since the program began on May 4, there were just five confirmed positive tests out of the more than 110,000 post-arrival tests conducted. Maui Mayor Michael Victorino said the program cost the county between $2.5-$2.7 million, but in the same breath, has provided important information on the source of variant transmission as well as the mindfulness of community spread.
