Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would be writing a serious article regarding the subject of Ebola: in Hawaii, in my lifetime, and how it could possibly affect your Hawaii wedding plans.\u00a0 Unfortunately, this is not a drill.\u00a0 While the chance of Ebola coming to Hawaii, infecting you, killing you, or ruining your destination wedding plans is extremely low\u2026There\u2019s still a chance.<\/p>\n

CAN EBOLA COME TO HAWAII?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, it really depends.<\/p>\n

Hawaii receives basically zero tourism from third world nations in Africa, let alone, those nations stricken with Ebola.\u00a0 Most who live in Africa don\u2019t even know that a place like Hawaii exists.\u00a0 Moreover, those that do, cannot afford to come here.\u00a0\u00a0 And, if they can afford to come here, they would have to first gain entrance through the continental United States, or any other modern country.\u00a0 This would mean, passing redundant safety measures (hopefully 21 day quarantines), just to reach the islands of Hawaii.\u00a0 In this scenario, Hawaii remains safe.<\/p>\n

If Ebola were to make its way to Hawaii, it would be via an American citizen; most likely a volunteer who fought this virus on its home turf in West Africa.\u00a0 As of now (October 29, 2014) there is no Hawaii State law that would require a mandatory quarantine of any human who has traveled to, from, or through, an Ebloa stricken nation.\u00a0 But, ironically, we do have a state law that requires any travelling animal, from anywhere, to be quarantined for a handful of weeks before and after entering our state.<\/p>\n

WHAT WOULD I DO IF EBOLA HAD AN OUTBREAK IN HAWAII<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always wondered what I would do if I starred in a zombie apocalypse movie.\u00a0 I think the first thing I would do is to seek out either Brad Pitt of Mila Jovovich; they seem to have some experience on this type of stuff.\u00a0 All joking aside, if Ebola did have a major outbreak here in Hawaii I my actions would probably consists of the following:<\/p>\n
