The State House Select Committee on COVID-19 Economic and Financial Preparedness met Monday morning to discuss what’s needed to move forward with a defined program to reopen businesses.  The state has  met White House guidelines to reduce cases for 14 days.  The Committee includes Governor Ige’s business navigator, Alan Oshima, Gen. Kenneth Hara of HIEMA (Hawaii Emergency Mangement Agency), Carl Bonham of UHERO (University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization, Dr. Mark Mugiishi of HMSA, and others.   They have worked to develop a comprehensive plan with benchmarks and guidelines for allowing businesses to reopen and stay open.  The plan also has guidelines on what to do if  COVID-19 cases increase.
