Updated August 18, 2020 | 4:00 p.m. 7

GUIDANCE ON USING CLOTH FACE COVERINGS

• CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of significant community-based transmission. Further information: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/cloth-face-cover.html

• CDC also advises the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure.

• Cloth face coverings should not be placed on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.

• The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance.

ECONOMIC IMPACT

• Congress passed Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act on March 27, and President Trump signed into law the largest economic stimulus package in modern American history – a $2 trillion measure – designed to respond to the coronavirus pandemic. Under the law, the government will deliver direct payments and jobless benefits for individuals, money for states and a substantial bailout fund for businesses battered by the crisis. In addition to the larger relief measures, $500 billion has been allocated to provide loans to businesses and industries such as airlines, hotels, restaurants, nonprofits and more.

• On August 13, STR and Tourism Economics revised its 2020 and 2021 U.S. hotel forecast projecting it will take 11 quarters for the number of room nights sold to rise to the corresponding levels of 2019, according to Jan Freitag, STR’s senior vice president of lodging insights. She also noted it will take until 2023 for occupancy to reach the 20-year historical average. With lower occupancy levels, and the influence of discounting as hoteliers compete for market share, ADR could show a slower recovery timeline even with more normalization each quarter. STR improved its 2021 ADR projection from +5.2% to +5.6%. Despite this better growth rate next year, it does not see ADR recovering to pre-2020 levels in the next five years.

o Occupancy: 2020 – 39.8% 2021 – 52.0%

o Average Daily Rate (ADR): 2020 – US$103.71 2021 – US$109.56

o Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR): 2020 – US$41.31 2021 – US$56.95

• STR reports that for the week of August 2-8, U.S. occupancy was down -32.6% year-over-year to 49.9%. Average daily rate (ADR) was down -24.9% to $100.88. RevPAR dropped -494% to $50.37.

Updated August 18, 2020 | 4:00 p.m. 8

• On May 21, CBRE reported lodging economic conditions are deteriorating quickly with the COVID-19 outbreak causing a sharp drop in economic activity. Key Findings:

o GDP growth will slow to 0.4% in 2020.

o U.S. RevPAR will decline by 51.9% in 2020F, with a contraction of more than 60% in Q2.

o Demand will decline by 37% in 2020F; ADRs are expected to decline -22.5% in 2020F.

o The most complex constraint impairing travel comes from social distancing efforts and travel or group gathering restrictions on global populations.

o The pace of declining occupancy, ADR, RevPAR and demand is expected to begin lessening during the third quarter of 2020. Year-over-year growth in each measure is anticipated by the second quarter of 2021.

o CBRE Hotels Research states that consistent with prior recessions, the severe declines in demand have sapped pricing. Based on data from STR, the national ADR level in April 2020 dropped 44% compared to April 2019.

• On June 17, Oxford Economics and its subsidiary Tourism Economics and U.S. Travel Association issued an updated overview of COVID-19’s economic impact.

o Domestic and International Travel Industry Losses – Domestic travel spending is forecast to drop 40% (from $972 billion in 2019 to $583 billion in 2020) while international inbound spending is expected to free-fall to 75% ($155 billion to $39 billion).

o GDP Losses – Travel industry losses will result in a cumulative GDP impact of $651 billion in 2020. We project the US economy to enter a protracted recession based on the expected downturn in travel alone. The recession is likely to last at least two quarters with the lowest point in the second quarter of 2020.

o Tax Losses – A decline of $80 billion in taxes will be realized as a result of travel declines in 2020.

o Employment Losses – The U.S. economy is projected to lose 8 million jobs by the end of April as a result of travel declines in 2020. The unemployment rate of 4.4% in March will rise substantially in the coming months. Travel-related employment losses alone will push the unemployment rate up to 8.4% by the end of April.

We don’t know if one type of travel is safer than others; however, airports, bus stations, train stations, and rest stops are all places travelers can be exposed to the virus in the air and on surfaces. These are also places where it can be hard to social distance (keep 6 feet apart from other people). https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/travel-in-the-us.html

EMPLOYER GUIDELINES

• The Hawai‘i State Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention encourages businesses to follow its recommendations regarding the workplace and employees, including guidance on maintaining flexible sick leave policies, encouraging sick workers to stay home and implementing regular environmental cleaning protocols and specific health checks for work-related travel.

https://health.hawaii.gov/docd/files/2020/02/2019-nCoV-Employer_guidance_HDOH.pdf https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/guidance-business-response.html

PREVENTION AND PREPARATION DOH recommends the following guidelines for protecting yourself and your family from COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases, in addition to preparing for what to do if coronavirus becomes widespread in our communities.

• Protect – Following everyday preventive actions can prevent or slow down the spread of respiratory illness in the community:

o Stay home if you start to feel ill.

o Wash your hands often. Use soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the

bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer

with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.

o Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

o Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

Updated August 18, 2020 | 4:00 p.m. 12

o Cover your coughs and sneezes. Use a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. If you don’t have a tissue, use your elbow.

o Clean and disinfect.

Clean frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.

o Get the flu shot. People with seasonal influenza will exhibit similar signs and symptoms as

COVID-19 (fever and cough). If more people are protected against influenza, this will reduce confusion and the burden on our healthcare system.

IF YOU ARE SICK

• Per DOH, if you become ill with a fever or cough, and have recently left an area having widespread community transmission of COVID-19 or have had prolonged close contact with a person confirmed to have COVID-19:

o Stay home and avoid contact with others.

o If you think you may need medical care, call ahead to the healthcare provider’s office or an emergency room and let them know about your symptoms and travel or contact history.

o If you need immediate medical care, call 911.
