Kauai Not Rejoining Pre-Travel Testing Until May
If you were hoping to take a Kauai vacation sometime soon, you might want to rethink your plans. At least for now, Kauai is not rejoining pre-travel testing until May at least. This being Mayor Kawakami, though, there is a very good reason for this.
As cases began rising again, Mayor Derek Kawakami decided to opt Kauai out of Hawaii’s Safe Travels pre-travel testing program. Since then, cases on the island have dropped down to just about zero. True, occasionally, new cases do pop up. But, the numbers are nowhere near the other islands, which are doing quite well now too. Heck, Oahu’s average case rate is down in the double-digit range with a less than 2% test positivity rate. However, with the B.1.1.7 variant becoming more prevalent across the U.S., things could turn quickly.
