Good for Hawaiian, but I don't suspect this a very controversial position to take in Hawaii.
More and more companies are mandating vaccines just as it is being shown that the vaccines have basically no effect on reducing transmission. Why bother?
Because transmission isn't the most important aspect. It's shown that of those hospitalized, 97% of them are unvaccinated, and of those who die, 99%+ are unvaccinated.
While you can still get COVID after getting vaccinated, and even spread it, you're very well-protected against severe disease, hospitalization and death. As an aside, that also means our healthcare system won't be overwhelmed since fewer people would need hospitalization as more and more people get vaccinated.
