Recently, the Hawaii tourism industry announced they would pay for tourists to leave during this period if they do not agree to the 14-day quarantine required by the state.
Starting April 1st, the Governor of Hawaii has required visitors to Hawaii to self-quarantine for two weeks.
Accordingly, the non-profit Visitor Aloha Society will be responsible for assisting visitors in Hawaii with medical and other general issues throughout their trip, including quarantine if the visitor agrees.
Conversely, if visitors to the island do not agree to a 14-day quarantine, the Visitor Aloha Society will arrange for them to return home and will pay for their airfare if they cannot afford it.
If tourists resist, they will be prosecuted and fined. This is the best measure Hawaii has adopted to assist international tourists and ensure the safety of the island's residents.
Starting on April 6th, representatives from the Hawaii tourism industry sent letters requesting that agencies cease promoting Hawaii tourism during this period in order to reduce the number of tourists visiting the island.
According to statistics from Johns Hopkins University, Hawaii has 596 cases of Covid-19 and 12 deaths.
