All travel restrictions on coronas to be abolished when vaccination rate reaches 70%.

I am afraid I am ignorant, but I would like to know.

I saw this
"Hawaii to eliminate all corona travel restrictions as vaccination rate reaches 70 percent"

I know it sounds like what it says, but once 70 percent of the population in Hawaii has completed their second dose of the vaccine, does that mean that people will come in from both the mainland and overseas regardless of whether they test positive or negative?


Also, if Japanese tourists are likely to come back because of this, will travel agencies etc. that cater to Japanese people start opening stores?

JAL will start 3 flights a week in October … .
Japanese people, are they going to come?

I wonder how to read ahead on this one too.

I would appreciate your
opinions.
Please let me be your reference.

The Japanese government is completely different from the State of Hawaii and the U.S. federal government.

I don't think they will repeal the regulation even if vaccination exceeds 70%.

When the Governor took the position that he would repeal the regulation if the vaccination rate exceeded 70%,
the delta mutant was virtually undetectable in Hawaii.

Today, almost 100% of new cases are delta variants.

We will not be able to abolish it until this threat has passed.

It looks like ANA's Honu is cancelled for the New Year's holiday.

Currently, JTB and HIS travel agencies are open. Offices where you can
buy tickets and such.

The reason JAL is flying is because they now require a
PCR within 72 hours to enter Hawaii from Japan and submit negative proof. Because there are people who
benefit from this.

Nice to meet you.

As you can see from the title, I have had pain in my leg for a year and have been feeling some discomfort, and for the past few months I have been unable to walk much because of the pain. I have been to various places such as massage, physical therapy, acupuncture, etc., but it has not gotten better.
Lately, I have difficulty sitting down and driving a car. Even when I go to bed, I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night.
It is difficult to go to the doctor in these days, and although I have insurance with Kaiser, I cannot go to the hospital.

I would like to know if there is any good place to go.
Thank you very much.

I'm sending this video for your information, but I don't know if this video will help if your sciatic nerve pain is too severe.
I have had chronic sciatica for over 20 years. I have always had discomfort in my left brother and sometimes the pain would go all the way down to my ankle.
I did this stretch several times a day for 3 months and the pain was 90% resolved.
Especially after taking a bath, it warms me up and feels great.
Of course, I went to physicals, chiropractors, needles, acupressure, and tried everything I could, but
I tried various stretches at home, easy to do, every day, and I recommend this one.

I don't think it will be cured suddenly, so you should continue ( over a long period of time so that it doesn't get worse ).

I still do this stretch only as much as I can.
I'm trying to keep that sciatica pain from coming back.

Please give it a try if you like.

Easy! Automatic bodywork! Low back pain & Sciatica & Hip pain, a must!

Mr. Stretch

You have been dealing with pain for over 20 years.
I really want to heal it as soon as possible because just having this pain is disrupting my life, but I need patience. I've been stretching a few times on youtube, but sometimes I have intense pain just from moving and other times I feel like I can do it today.
I will try not to overdo it and do the stretches you taught me.

Thank you for your advice !.

I think it is the same for all races, no matter where they live. Compared to others.

I don't think it's about that, I think it's key to be a visionary.

Now, people in their 20s to 50s won't feel that different from others.

Someday, when we are in our 60s or older, there will be a disparity.

Because if we had the same amount of rent and pension when we get our Social Security,

we would not be able to eat in Hawaii unless we have a lot of money in our savings.

Such people are returning to Japan.

If the mortgages are over when they reach pension age, they will be able to live comfortably with their pension, savings, and the profit from the sale of the house

if they replace the 3 bd house with a 1 bd house, etc.

The difference is that you would have purchased the house during your working years or you would continue to pay rent until you die for the rest of your life.

Look at people who are now living on pensions and realize ? which you will be and act quickly.

Question

I recently had a very unpleasant experience when returning an item to Don Quijote in Caheka, and I am posting this here because I have a question & about it.

• returning part of my purchase • I gave the receipt to customer service for exchange and the person in charge was operating the cash register while at the same time making another announcement in the store.
• You pay for the item you want to exchange on the spot with your card and leave the store, knowing that it will be deposited in your bank in a few days since you paid by debit card.
( Here, I inadvertently failed to notice that there was no receipt for the refund. )
• A week later, you realize that your account has not been refunded and check with customer service again.
• I showed the original receipt to the same person and was told that it was a debit and that I would get a cash refund, but no cash refund was given.
• I tell him I didn't get a receipt for the refund, he says no receipt for cash refund.
• When I ask for the receipt, I am shown a copy of the RETURN TRANSACTION, which is different from the official receipt, and told that I am getting a refund, but I go home unconvinced.

In hindsight, the amount of money was very small, and if I had backed out at this point, I would have avoided a bad experience. However, my penchant for black-and-white statements has been a detriment to me. No matter how I recall it, I did not receive any cash, and the proof is that I always pay by credit card and do not carry cash, especially coins, in my wallet. If there was change in my wallet, it was my assumption, but since it was so clear, I went back to customer service💦

I was given a vague explanation by the same person, and when I insisted that I had not received any cash, he made it sound as if I was making an accusation, so I had no choice.
I was very displeased when the refund was made in a raised voice.

I have lived in Hawaii for almost 15 years and have done several refunds, but is there such a thing as not getting a receipt for a cash refund at a large retail store? ? The customer has no proof that the money was refunded. I asked if there were any cases like mine, and they said no, but I very much doubt it.
And this has taught me the importance of getting receipts. If I were an American, the person in charge would not have treated me the same way. There are some customers who are not of good quality, like Kramer, but I wish they would have treated me with the spirit of customer service once again. It was an event that made me keenly aware of the gap in national character.

Hello.
I'm sorry to hear about your frustration.
I don't know about donkis, but I wonder if they have cameras in places where cash is handled ?

Many years ago, a high school student on a school trip from Japan lost his wallet at an ABC store and was in trouble. He wanted to ask the last ABC Store he used, but he had trouble communicating in English, so I stepped in to interpret for him.
The manager of the ABC Store asked the high school student when he used the store and where the cash register was located, and checked his recorder.
I also saw the high school student put his wallet in his jacket pocket after making a purchase.

Then recently, I myself lost my credit card and went to ROSS in Ala Moana to ask about my last purchase. The clerk went to check behind me and confirmed that you had your credit card in your gray wallet. He told me that I had to go back to the store.

So I guess most stores have a recorder ? Maybe you should have asked for the manager first instead of the clerk who did the refound. I hope the blur clears up soon. Please do something to relieve your stress.

I see. If I could have checked with a recorder, it would have been obvious and I would not have had a bad experience. Perhaps the donkey did not respond. The person in charge was a supervisor, but I felt indignant at that response.
When I asked if the receipt is not usually given with the original and the refund attached, he said that it is not given in case of cash refund
He said that others have their own way and Donki has Donki's way. I guess the system is outdated, including the recorder.
Thank you very much for your comment. Thank you !.

Don ・ Quixote customer service sucks.

The cashier mistakenly counted the same item 5 times to charge me.
They refunded me for 2 of the charges, but there were still 3 left on my receipt.

The cashier asked for a refund for the two charges, but
the customer service person said, "You bought three of the same item ?",
and I said, "Look at this." I said, "No, no, no, they refunded my money.

That was so annoying.

You can use the information that is Uploaded to the Safe Travel Site.

So PCR testing within 48 hours is not required.

Starting Sept. 13, we need to coordinate with Safe Travel, and at this time
we cannot use the international vaccination card.

Also, some people
think that the measures from September 13th are only for 60 days, but it is a pilot program for 60 days.
After that, it will be a full-scale operation.

The same thing will start in Maui County on September 15. However,
it will be on a smaller scale than Honolulu.

Kauai and Hawaii counties are taking a wait-and-see approach.

* Maui County will
include Maui, Lanai, and Molokai.

At least on Oahu, anyone can get vaccinated for free.
You can get it if you bring your passport. However, if you have an adverse reaction or get infected with corona, the medical expenses are not free.
If you do get infected, you will be inconvenienced by the hotel and have huge medical bills, so it is not a good idea to travel to Hawaii just yet.

We recommend that you get the inoculation in Japan rather than in Hawaii.

The reason is that Boost inoculations will start, and if you have been inoculated overseas,
you will probably not be able to get the third inoculation
even if the third inoculation starts in Japan.

If you fill in your Japanese address when you get the vaccination in Hawaii, you will be charged
a fee.

Please inoculate yourself in Japan and then come to Hawaii
after the new corona has settled down.

Do not travel unnecessarily.

and was unable to fly and had to be quarantined for 10 days.
He caused a lot of inconvenience to the hotel, paid thousands of dollars for 10 days of hotel
during which time he was not allowed to leave the house and had all his meals delivered.

If you are asymptomatic, you can get away with the above, but if you become symptomatic during isolation and need to be hospitalized … ?
if you become very ill and have to be in the ICU … ?

I would not be willing to go to Hawaii with unvaccinated, where the positive rate is much higher than in Tokyo.
but if you can financially afford it, go ahead and take the risk.

You are not relying on them, but your ex-husband's obligation. There is also a court order out there, so if you don't pay it, you will be in contempt of court.

Seeing the change in my son, I thought about getting braces again, but I gave up because of the high disadvantages: the risk of gum disease increases after 40s, braces can cause fatal injuries to teeth and bones, and the strong force applied makes it easier for teeth to fall out in the future.
I was not concerned about the disadvantages of orthodontics for health reasons, but for aesthetic reasons ⁇
I gave up on orthodontics and switched to stain treatment 🤣.

I highly recommend Dr. Steven Tottori who specializes in orthodontics.

I actually started out wanting to correct my teeth with Invisalign, but ended up with backside braces.
The custom-made backside orthodontic appliance called Incognito ( Incognito ) that I had is only available in Oahu from Dr. Steven Tottori.
Invisalign was not ideal for my case, so I decided to go with discreet backside braces.
Of course, Dr. Steven Tottori also offers Invisalign.

When I was looking for an orthodontist, I chose several from the list of orthodontists on Honolulu Magazine's Best Dentist and made appointments with a total of four doctors for consultations and compared their treatment plans.
The Best Dentist list in Honolulu Magazine seems to change every year, but Dr. Steven Tottori has been on the list for over 10 years ( ? ).
Most of the other teachers I quoted against were only ranked in the year I looked for them, and were off the list the year before or the year after.

Counseling with different doctors helps me understand what is wrong with my dentition, which doctors seem reliable, and how well they work with me.
Counseling is free, but some doctors charge for x-rays ( However, if you sign a contract afterwards, there was a discount ) from the orthodontic fee.
I also paid for x-rays for two of the four doctors because they charged for x-rays, but I wanted to be satisfied with the correction, so I have no regrets and I am glad that I was able to choose well until I was satisfied with the results.

I also think the location of the doctor's office is important, since you need to visit regularly.

Mr. T
Thanks for your comment. Yes, it is important to get advice from your family dentist first. I understand that even if you want to have Invisalign, you may need to choose a better method. I am looking forward to seeing your beautiful teeth when you start the treatment next month.

Thanks for your comment. I learned a lot about the disadvantages. If it is meant to be aesthetic, it is meaningless if it chips or falls out ! ! I would like to have a thorough consultation and seriously consider it until I am satisfied.

Thank you for your comment Dr. Steven Tottori, I will look into this as soon as possible. I would like to consider multiple counseling sessions to understand the best method for me and about compatibility. I thought it would be a good idea, but I would like to do some thorough preliminary research and consider treatment options.

I contracted corona at work and had to take 10 days off work. 10 days off work is not good for my life. Is there any relief for this kind of situation ? Please let me know if anyone knows anything about this.

As far as I can tell.

There is a "FFCRA Act" for pandemic preparedness, but the target audience is employees working in small businesses with less than 500 employees.

I read an article once that this law was Expired in December 2020 and was re-extended in some states. However, when I checked, I found that the federal Department of Labor website has not updated its explanation of the re-extension.

Federal Department of Labor homepage:
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/pandemic/ffcra-questions

Is this "FFCRA law" still applicable in Hawaii? If so, we recommend that you contact the Hawaii Department of Labor directly for the most up-to-date information on whether you meet the requirements.

I have found other information since then and will add it. They will be paid UI for a week instead of 10 days. The amount paid is not based on your salary as it is, but on your past income for the past 18 months.

Question
I was tested for COVID-19 and am awaiting my results, and my employer told me not to return to work, am I eligible for UI?

Answer
Yes, you are.

However, it takes almost a month to start the online process, pass the screening and get paid. If you have read the unemployment insurance rules carefully in the handbook and still want to receive one week's payment, it would be quicker to find a relative or friend who received unemployment insurance due to the pandemic and ask them to directly tell you how to go about the procedure.

My personal impression is that if the FFCRA law is still in effect in the state of Hawaii, it would be easier to apply for Paid Sick Leave than unemployment insurance, which has many strict rules and conditions.

I am a woman in her 40s whose gray hair is becoming more and more noticeable.

I would like to know a hair salon or beautician on Oahu who is good at coloring my gray hair. I would like to have my hair colored so that it will blend in with my gray hair even after it grows out, and not just one color. I would appreciate it if you can speak Japanese, but English is also fine.

If you know someone, please let me know.
