Makerita Iosefo-Va'a and her husband Shaun Va'a sit together in a park near a relative's home where they are temporarily staying in Tracy, Calif., on Oct. 8, 2020. The couple are homesick for American Samoa. She's among an estimated 600 residents of the U.S. territory who were away when American Samoa's governor closed borders to keep the cluster of Pacific islands free from coronavirus. Vaʻa and others say they don't want American Samoa to open its borders, but just to bring them home safely. (AP Photo/Eric Risberg)
