DAILY NEWS DIGEST
May 12, 2020
Department of Health:
One New Case of COVID-19
There is one (1) new case reported today by the DOH. This is an out-of-state resident who was screened at the airport and subsequently tested positive. Complacency is a serious concern as reports of fewer cases inadvertently signals less urgency. Informal gatherings are being observed and people are doing less social distancing and everyone is not wearing a mask. Any success we are seeing now will backslide if everyone in our community does not comply with the safer-at-home order, social distancing, mask-wearing, and other measures to control the spread of coronavirus. State legislators are urged to remind their constituents that maintaining community efforts and sacrifices will allow us to reopen the state. Not complying, could create a second wave of COVID-19 and delay reopening businesses and resumption of travel.

Department of Defense:
Team Hickam Salutes First Responders in Statewide Flyover
The Hawai‘i Air National Guard and 15th Wing Active Duty Airmen from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam will perform a flyover throughout the State on Thursday, May 14, around 11:00 a.m. The flyovers are scheduled above most of Hawai‘i’s large hospitals and major metropolitan areas in a salute to all frontline workers battling COVID-19, as well as those staying home to “flatten the curve.” The flyover will feature all locally-based U.S. Air Force planes, including a C-17 Globemaster III, a KC-135 Stratotanker and a four-ship flight of F-22 Raptors. These aircraft were already scheduled for training flights, so the flyover comes at no additional cost to the taxpayer. The flight path was coordinated with Hawai‘i State officials as well as the Federal Aviation Administration. The altitude of the flyover will vary between 2,500 and 3,000 feet above ground level. 154th Wing Commander Brig. Gen. Dann Carlson said, “This event will recognize the hard work that everyone in Hawai‘i has already accomplished to keep Hawai‘i’s COVID cases among the lowest in the nation, while also acknowledging the need for continued vigilance. These flyovers are meant to provide hope and reaffirm confidence in our state and nation while emphasizing the Air Force’s enduring commitment and support to the people of the State of Hawai’i.” Residents watching should do so from the safety of their homes while adhering to social distancing guidelines and should refrain from traveling to see the flyovers.
