Loading ...There is a prevailing social rumor that the rich and elite are coming to Hawaii because it is ‘safe there’. NOPE! Hawaii IS NOT THE ‘SAFE’ PLACE TO BE… rich or otherwise!
Lets review: Mandatory 14 day quaranantine for all airline arrivals. 14 day quarantine for all Inter-island travel also (medical and essential workers excepted) All public beaches, parks, and non essential businesses are closed. Yet still a few hundred idiots a week arrive, thinking they are gonna have a good time in ‘paradise’.Nope! Here’s a couple standouts from the past week.
Two apparently homeless persons arrived at HNL International with no place to stay… seemingly thinking this was a good place to ‘beach it’. They were held at the airport. A visitor aid organization paid for their immediate return tickets and they were put on the next flight back to LAX from whence they came.
Another Honolulu resident (who should have known better) summoned his girlfriend from Virginia and met her at the airport. They immediately transferred interisland to Kauai. Upon Kauai arrival they informed authorities they would quarantine at a local hotel. Upon later quarantine check it was found they were unknown at the hotel. APB and the local police found them on a beach at Princeville. They were arrested and placed under house arrest at a hotel with police monitoring. Also face up to a $5k fine.
Governor complains that he is unable to stop arrivals… only quarantine them. One local health official commented that continuing to allow visitor arrivals with weak quarantine was like having a ‘designated pee-ing area in the swimming pool’.
Don’t come to Hawaii, folks! Not safe here, and you WILL be locked down here too. Nothing to see here. Stay tuned for the daily Hawaii statistics below as they become available.
