Testimony-Hawaii County Council Meeting
March 20, 2020
In 2016 we dealt with Dengue fever. Areas were closed off to the public due to the possibility of
spreading the disease from one person to the next via mosquitoes.
Fast forward to 2020 we are in the middle of a worldwide PANDEMIC due to a disease that is
spread person to person!
Yet,we are not shutting down our island. We are still allowing tourist to roam freely on our
island. Putting our residents at risk.
It is reported that our count is 1 here on our island. The patient not even a resident!!
So,what is it going to take? How many do we need to test positive one, two, five, ten?
Given the facts that we are a rural island and the geographical isolation we have as a state we
were in an amazing position to keep our people safe.
BUT, I TRULY BELIEVE WE ARE PAST THAT POINT NOW AND WE ARE ONLY
GOING TO SEE OUR NUMBERS RISE.
SHUT DOWN HAWAII ISLAND NOW!! KEEP OUR PEOPLE SAFE!
THAT IS YOUR KULEANA AS OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS!
"Always stay humble & kind!"
