Interisland travel is now allowed with no 14-day quarantine, but State Department of Health has implemented procedures that will help monitor the health of travelers plus provide tracking information in case they either get sick themselves or come into contact with somebody who has or develops COVID-19. This is part of the contact tracing so critical to helping prevent unmanageable spread of COVID-19. For detail on the travel procedures, click here for a previous story.
