Health officials also said today that, of the state’s total infection count, 695 cases were considered to be active. Officials say they consider infections reported in the past 14 days to be a “proxy number for active cases.” The state’s total number of active cases decreased by 93 today.

By island, Oahu has 345 active cases, the Big Island has 188, Maui has 151 and Kauai has 11.

Health officials counted 5,685 new COVID-19 test results in today’s tally, for a 0.63% statewide positivity rate. The state’s 7-day average positivity rate is 0.9%, according to the Hawaii COVID-19 Data dashboard.

The latest Hawaii COVID-19 vaccine summary said that 1,592,739 vaccine doses have been administered through state and federal distribution programs as of Thursday. Health officials say that more than 54% of the state’s population is now fully vaccinated.

Of all the confirmed Hawaii infection cases, 2,381 have required hospitalizations, with no new hospitalizations reported today.

Ten hospitalizations in the overall statewide count are Hawaii residents who were diagnosed and treated outside the state. Of the 2,371 hospitalizations within the state, 1,962 have been on Oahu, 266 on Maui, 128 on the Big Island, nine on Kauai, five on Lanai and one on Molokai.

Oahu on Friday moved into the less-restrictive Tier 4 of the city’s four-tier economic recovery plan. The change allows social gatherings of up to 25 people at outdoor venues, including at parks and beaches, but the group size for indoor social gatherings remains at 10 people.

The seven-day average case count for Oahu is 23 and the seven-day average positivity rate is 1.0%, state health officials said today.
