Hawaii health officials reported 108 new COVID-19 cases on Saturday including 86 on Oahu, 16 on Maui, one each on the Big Island, Lanai and Kauai, and three residents diagnosed out of state.

A second person on Oahu also was confirmed to have a more contagious variant of COVID-19 that originated in the United Kingdom, the state Department of Health said Saturday. The first case was reported on Friday, also on Oahu.

The DOH said neither patient had a recent history of travel, according to Hawaii News Now.

The new cases raised the state’s total to 26,393. No new fatalities were reported. The state COVID-19 death toll is 416. The state reported 1,318 cases in the past 14 days.

Due to updated information, one case from Oahu was moved from the counts. The Health Department also said one case was a Lanai resident whose exposure was on Maui and who will remain on Maui for the interim.

Hawaii remains in phase 1b of its vaccine rollout plan, which includes seniors 75 and older, first responders and other essential workers.

Approximately 189,446 COVID-19 vaccine doses have been administered in the islands as of Friday, according to the Department of Health.

Statewide, 1.8% of people tested during the past week have been confirmed to have COVID-19. That figure was 2.4% on Oahu and 2.2% in Maui County. Oahu has been in Tier 2 of its reopening plan since October.
