Kauai County’s cumulative case count has remained at 21 for a couple of weeks. Only one case is still actively monitored by DOH and the person is hospitalized. The 20 others have recovered.
Oahu’s cumulative case count remained at 400, including 374 recoveries documented by the health department. Fifty-three people have required hospitalization on Oahu to date, and another 11 people have died.
Maui County’s cumulative case count remained at 116 on Monday, including one Lanai resident who was exposed on Maui and has not returned to Lanai since.
On Sunday, Maui’s six deaths related to the coronavirus were confirmed. The woman who died was older than 60 and had been hospitalized for other medical issues since February at Maui Memorial Medical Center. Her COVID-19 infection occurred in mid-April. The hospital is the site of a cluster of cases affecting both staff and patients.
The state health department’s epidemiologists have found that most cases confirmed in April were community-related, and new infections have dwindled.

Across the islands, 73 people have been hospitalized to date, including some Hawaii residents hospitalized out of state. Patients who do not require hospitalization recuperate at home in isolation and only qualify to be released when at least 14 days of quarantine have passed and their symptoms have subsided.
The state has registered 17 deaths in relation to COVID-19 since March.
Hawaii is still under a stay-at-home order through the end of May but some restrictions have been lifted.
Those who are not under mandatory quarantine are allowed to exercise on beaches and at some public parks if they abide by six-foot social distancing guidelines. Florists are back open for business
Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell is allowing people to exercise in parks, although he doesn’t want them to congregate, play team sports or use any playground equipment. The city also opened its botanical gardens.
