Minister of Health spent a good deal of today’s press conference scolding the press for misinformation it is spreading. So imagine what goes on online. Victims are quite gullible, rush to buy whatever they offer and do not consider the ulterior motives people have spreading rumors…Or feed on them.
Yes, but faking an illness and screaming fire in a crowded building aren’t comparable IMO.
It is outdoors. In a very windy area. Sunny by day. And people wear masks.
Same with Taipei Lantern Festival, which saw fewer attendee.
In other news, extremely recommend to go to the Chrysanthemum Exhibition at CKS old place in Shilin. No crowds!
Or like a coworker said, no Chinese.
Time to impose mandatory self-quarantine on entries from South Korean?
You sure picked a nice time to go there!

A woman in Canada tested positive after traveling to Iran. That has got health officials concerned
From CNN’s Paula Newton
Canada’s chief public health officer Theresa Tam has raised concerns over a woman who tested positive for coronavirus after recently returning from Iran.
“Any important cases linked to Iran could be an indicator that there is more widespread transmission than we know about,” Tam said.
Iran only recently began reporting its first cases. On Friday, the Middle Eastern country confirmed a total of 18 patients with coronavirus and four deaths.
Tam said this is a reminder that the novel coronavirus is a global issue and that there is the possibility that the virus could be present in countries that may not have the capacity to detect or contain the virus.
The Canadian woman, in her 30, is the sixth case of novel coronavirus in British Columbia and the ninth for Canada overall.
Key points, not direct translation:
The Central Epidemic Epidemic Command Center says the 19 from diamond princess cruise ship returned to Taiwan safely and the initial quarantine confirmed that they had no discomfort and the test results were negative.
They will be sent to the centralized quarantine location to complete the 14-day isolation and quarantine.

Where is the information for level 1,2 and 3? Cannot find it on the website.
Maybe you’re trying too hard to be with God…

Your query is my command:
Under the [Taiwan] government’s three-tier travel advisory system, a level 1 “watch” urges travelers to take normal precautions and respect disease-prevention measures put in place at their destination.
A level 2 “alert” urges travelers to be more vigilant and a level 3 “warning” cautions against nonessential travel.
