(For clarity, there is a gap in the days recorded on this thread)

https://www.civilbeat.org/2020/04/hawaii...-19-cases/
"On Friday, 12 more cases of COVID-19 were reported by Hawaii health officials, taking the infection count to 553.

Approximately 70% of patients — 390 people — monitored by the Hawaii Department of Health have qualified to be released from isolation, signaling their recovery.

Non-hospitalized patients meet the recovery criteria to be released from isolation if they have not had a fever for at least three days and at least a week has passed since the onset of their symptoms. All have been required to self-quarantine for two weeks to ensure the virus has passed.

The department reports that 48 of the COVID-19 patients it has verified have required hospitalization.

Oahu’s COVID-19 infection count reached 380, up from 373 on Thursday. DOH reports 292 of them have recovered to be released from isolation, and 40 Oahu residents have been hospitalized. Six Oahu residents have died.

Hawaii County reported three new cases, taking its infection count to 44 to date, but 30 people have been released from isolation. No Hawaii County residents have been hospitalized. Kauai’s infection count remained at 21 coronavirus cases, and 16 patients have been released from isolation. Only one Kauai resident has been hospitalized.

The most COVID-19 cases in Hawaii have been among people 40 to 59 years old. About 19% of patients older than 60 have been hospitalized.

Maui County, which includes the islands of Molokai and Lanai, has reported 102 cases, up from 95 on Thursday. Approximately half of the patients have been released from isolation, seven have been hospitalized, and three Maui residents have died due to COVID-19 related issues.

To date, six Hawaii residents have been diagnosed outside of the islands."
