HI SR53

Urges the Governor to allow travelers arriving in Hawaii, including interisland travelers, to bypass the mandatory 10-day quarantine if they provide proof of receiving both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Notes that the CDC announced fully vaccinated individuals (with both doses and at least two weeks since second dose) are no longer required to quarantine after COVID-19 exposure.

References that Hawaii currently allows travelers with negative COVID-19 test results from trusted partners to bypass the 10-day quarantine, but does not recognize COVID-19 vaccination as an exemption.

Requests that the State clarify that other COVID-19 related protocols established by the State and counties continue to apply to arriving travelers regardless of vaccination status.

Directs that a certified copy of the resolution be transmitted to the Office of the Governor.
