Coronavirus Taiwan - Specific Developments July-October 2022

No

robbing bastards

With the new rules, do you need to pass a negative test before you can leave the hotel after three days, or can you just fuck off when your three days are up regardless?

I’m feeling burned out and I just need a break. I’m start to really hate every aspect of the day-to-day life until weekends.

Also “Upon arriving in Taiwan, they will have to take a saliva-based COVID-19 test”

What happens if I do test positive? Am I then carted off to one the government-run quarantine gulags like I’ve got the bubonic plague for two weeks?

My partner is currently serving day 3 of the +4 at home. Took the Saliva test upon arrival at the Airport, but has not received any notification of the result (probably only get told if test was positive), so no idea what happens. He has not received a single text or Phone call from the CDC since arrival. Supposed to take a RAT test before going out, but has not been advised who to tell if it tests positive either, so the RAT’s remain unused, even though he has been outside the front door since the +4 started. The whole thing seems to be honesty based.

As someone who went through the hassle of testing positive and being honest about it. Don’t bother. The whole process was an absolute fucking nightmare which led to me having a breakdown.

I know more than one person who did not report being positive. They felt symptoms and after confirming with a test, stayed home until the virus was cleared from their system. Did not head out until testing negative and waiting a day or two after that. I have a feeling that this way of doing things is widespread.

Supposedly, but only if you are staying in a hotel, but not if you are staying home. They won’t contact you about the test result unless you are positive.

The guy who called me said to, but that I only needed to report back if it was positive.

Just recently went through this.

Cheers–I would be stopping at home. So at least I wouldn’t be carted off. But, I also don’t think I could deal with 2 weeks quarantine at home again. I was cracking up last time with it.

So basically, there’s zero benefit to reporting it back as positive lol

Interesting. So it appears (as I suggested elsewhere) Taiwan did evolve a ‘landrace’ variant of omicron, presumably due to unique evolutionary pressures. It seems to have been subsequently displaced by another strain (imported from abroad?).
