Hawaii Relaxes Outdoor Mask Rules, Urges Vaccines For Schools - Honolulu Civil Beat
Updated guidance calls vaccinations ‘the most important core essential strategy’ as schools prepare to reopen next week. Reading time: 4 minutes.
In updated guidance to schools released Monday, the Hawaii Department of Health urged all eligible students and staff to get COVID-19 vaccinations as a key factor to safely reopening schools for in-person instruction next week.
Education officials are moving forward with plans to bring kids back to classrooms despite a recent surge in coronavirus cases, largely driven by the highly contagious delta variant.
The new guidelines also relaxed requirements to wear face masks in most outdoor spaces for students and staff unless in crowded settings or activities that require close contact, but continued to mandate them indoors except when eating and drinking, in line with general statewide rules.
