Look at the infection rates around the country and you can see that Hawaii is among the lowest. One does not achieve that without effort and making tough decisions. Sorry if that temporarily ruins your vacation plans.

I'll leave it at that...
No, I love the Hawaiian people and the islands, [comment redacted by moderator per guidelines posted above by the moderation team; feel free to re-express your statement without overt political language]. Iceland is planning to re-open to tourists with testing on arrival (as is the case for Austria). But it sounds like a majority of the population on Oahu supports the ultra-conservative approach. So again. sad that I can't visit Hawaii, but plenty of other options will be available.
