Leaders from various sectors of the Native Hawaiian community united on Thursday, Aug. 26, 2021 to encourage community members to do their part to stop the surge of COVID-19. With Native Hawaiians representing nearly 32% of all COVID-19 cases statewide (while only constituting 21% of the population), more needs to be done to empower and educate Native Hawaiians on what choices are best for their community, their ʻohana and loved ones.
