“The information from this survey will help UHERO analyze the impact of the COVID-19 shutdown on businesses and households statewide, and to better assess our existing projections,” UHERO Executive Director Carl Bonham said. “This type of geographic and industrially-detailed information is not available from any traditional data source in real-time, and it will be invaluable to our ongoing work.”
The Chamber of Commerce Hawai‘i is updating its COVID-19 resource for businesses page at www.cochawaii.org.
