The three new deaths reported today include two on Oahu and one on Maui. No other details were immediately released.

The state’s official coronavirus-related death toll includes 322 fatalities on Oahu, 53 on Hawaii island, 25 on Maui, one on Kauai, and three Hawaii residents who died on the mainland.

The U.S. coronavirus-related death toll was more than 427,000 today.

Today’s new statewide infection cases reported by the Health Department include 64 on Oahu, 27 on Maui, three on the Big Island, and nine residents diagnosed outside of Hawaii, officials said.

The statistics released today reflect the new infection cases reported to the department on Monday.

Health officials also said today that of the state’s total infection count, 1,613 cases were considered to be active. Officials say they consider infections reported in the past 14 days to be a “proxy number for active cases.” The number of active cases in the state increased by one today.

By island, Oahu has 1,191 active cases, Maui has 319, the Big Island has 95, Kauai has eight, according to the state’s latest tally. Lanai and Molokai have no active COVID cases.

Of all the confirmed Hawaii infection cases, 1,673 have required hospitalizations, with four new hospitalizations on Oahu reported today by state health officials.

Four hospitalizations in the statewide count are Hawaii residents who were diagnosed and treated outside the state. Of the 1,669 hospitalizations within the state, 1,464 have been on Oahu, 98 on Maui, 94 on the Big Island, seven on Kauai, five on Lanai and one on Molokai.

According to the latest information from the department’s Hawaii COVID-19 Data dashboard, a total of 80 patients with the virus were in Hawaii hospitals as of this morning, with 22 in intensive care units and 25 on ventilators.

State officials release the verified updated vaccination numbers each Wednesday.

Oahu moved to the less-restrictive Tier 2 of Honolulu’s four-tier economic recovery plan on Oct. 22. To gauge whether Honolulu will move to a different tier, the city takes a “weekly assessment” of two key COVID-19 numbers each Wednesday. To move to Tier 3 from Tier 2, the 7-day average of new cases must be below 50 on two consecutive Wednesdays. Also, the 7-day average positivity rate must be below 2.5% on those two Wednesdays.

Today’s seven-day average case count for Oahu is 81 and the seven-day average positivity rate is 3.0%, according to Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi.
