Hawaii will require travelers to be fully vaccinated *and boosted* in order to skip the mandatory quarantine.

Travelers who do not have the Covid booster will be ordered to quarantine for five days, Hawaii Governor Ige announced.

“We know that the community needs time to react to that, so we would have to provide at least two weeks for those who may not be up-to-date to go to have the opportunity to go and get vaccinated if they need to,” the governor said, according to Hawaii News Now.

Governor Ige also said he has been speaking with mayors about requiring proof of Covid booster shots in order to dine indoors.
