Small bit of good news is that Princess Cruises is suspending all operations for 60 days.

That's obviously not all the cruise lines that visit here, but it might be the first of many to follow suit (just like with the vast number of colleges moving to online only classes - these decisions build a momentum once the first one breaks the inertia)
we will all need to literally stay at home
Yep, that's what social distancing means. (NSFW)
IF POSSIBLE, work from home, suspend school, avoid all public interactions that are not ESSENTIAL. Hopefully we can make these changes now as early changes have greater impact on the final outcome, or we can wait till the powers that be force them on us when daily life falls apart like we've seen in South Korea and Italy.
Many people out there in Hawaii are already infected but haven't been tested (Lt Governor said as much yesterday during his Q & A - watch the interview) and people are going to get sick. All you can do is take steps to minimize your chances that you are part of the surge that leads to lots of people not getting treatment at the hospitals and dying.
