Taiwan’s pandemic history
Historians will consider May 11, 2021, as the day Taiwan was invaded by a wave of new COVID-19 cases 16 were reported after many months of seven or fewer new cases per day, with none, one or two reported on most days.
The end result will depend on how we immediately respond. If we halt the growing carelessness we are witnessing and regain the rigorous attitude and willingness to take action as we did in spring last year, there is a good chance we can stop this wave from getting out of control.
However, all levels of government and private citizens would need to work together to make sure that COVID-19 has no place to go, no one to spread to and nowhere to hide while waiting for an opportunity to re-emerge.
