Probably be a good thing. Everyone will be exposed during the Moon Festival and we’ll be past the wave quickly.

Then they might get rid of the quarantine and mask mandate for good.

@MalcolmReynolds

All had severe infections

It’s interesting that they’ve started reporting actual ages rather than ranges.

Though I’m not sure how “All had severe infections” is consistent with people being labeled “asymptomatic”. So these people were…severely asymptomatic?

[MalcolmReynolds]

@Andrew

It’s interesting that they’ve started reporting actual ages rather than ranges.

No, they haven’t started doing this.

Everyday there is a different CECC plebe who processes the daily report. Every frickin’ day the format is completely different. Different font, font size, field size, different headers, different information, etc. In typical Taiwanese fashion THERE ARE NO STANDARDS! It makes it extremely difficult when I’m translating the reports because I first must put it into my standardized format that I’ve created, so I can translate it with the least amount of hassle.

So, to date, they have only published the exact ages of the reported deaths three times including this one. Tomorrow there will be a completely new format with different information done by a different plebe that I’ll have to deal with again. They will most likely return to the age range reporting again.

For the record, I’ve sent 4 emails to the CECC headquarters requesting that they standardize the reports and also report the exact ages of the deaths versus age ranges. They’ve received my emails, they’ve read them, numerous times, but have never responded to me or taken any of my advice.

@Andrew I appreciate you taking the time to read the translated reports and that you noticed today’s exact age reporting. Feels like my effort isn’t completely wasted.

Cheers.

Oh okay, thanks for explaining. I assumed it was a deliberate choice rather than just inconsistency. My mistake.

@MalcolmReynolds

@Andrew I appreciate you taking the time to read the translated reports and that you noticed today’s exact age reporting. Feels like my effort isn’t completely wasted.

And thanks for posting them. I think the government releasing them is of limited value anymore as I’ve said elsewhere, but it’s nice of you to keep posting them here for us.

[FairComment]

@Andrew

I think the government releasing them is of limited value

They’re still serving an important purpose for the govt - a few very specific political goals, some sociological goals.

@FairComment

Yeah, maybe. I meant “limited value for the claimed purpose”, but I could have been more specific.

limited value for the claimed purpose

Absolutely. Possibly an understatement as well.
