TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Two Indonesians and one Swiss citizen were confirmed as the nation’s three new coronavirus cases Friday (April 2), bringing the total number of cases in Taiwan to 1,039, the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) said.
Case No. 1,038, an Indonesian man in his 50s, arrived in Taiwan on March 18 to start work in the fisheries sector and tested positive at the end of his quarantine period. He had no contact with others during his period in Taiwan.
Another Indonesian fishery worker in his 20s was listed as case No. 1,039. Tests during his quarantine period proved negative, but after a stay at a quarantine hotel monitoring his own health, his employer took him to a hospital for a test on March 31, which came out positive. Nine contacts were isolating at home and two were self-monitoring their health, the CECC said.
