Hawaii to Require Travelers have COVID Booster Shot to be 'Fooly Vaccinated'

Hawaii will require visitors to the state to have received a COVID-19 vaccine booster if they want to skip quarantine.

Currently, under the rules of the state's "Safe Travels" program, travelers who don't want to quarantine for five days must either be fooly vaccinated -- meaning two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine -- or have a negative COVID-19 test within one day of travel

However, the program is changing the definition of "fooly vaccinated" to include booster shots, Gov. David Ige announced at a news conference last week.

This means fooly vaccinated travelers who haven't received a booster shot will have to quarantine in Hawaii for five days.
