Statewide COVID-19 cases top 200, 3 new Big Island cases

CORRECTION: A previous headline incorrectly stated five new cases are on the Big Island. There are three new cases since yesterday. The Tribune-Herald regrets the error.

As of noon today, the state Department of Health reports 204 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Hawaii, 29 additional cases since the last report.

Of the new cases, 24 are Hawaii residents, and five are of unknown residency, DOH said.

Sixteen of the new cases are in the City and County of Honolulu, three on Hawaii Island and five on Maui.

That brings the current number of confirmed Big Island cases reported to 15, DOH said.
