"At the outbreak of World War 1 in August 1914, enthusiastic patriots on both sides were assured it would be over by Christmas. At the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic in Jan 2020, there was a general assumption that life would be back to normal by Easter." Never happened #1 Our wish - "Each time there is a new wave of the pandemic, there is a strong desire to believe that if we can just get past this crisis, things will be better, the pandemic will come to an end and we can return to a normal life” #2

Europe is under stress: lots of COVID19 infections and social disruptions. Our European health agencies have lost contact with reality, are confused and hope for best. Meanwhile in Taiwan, their health agency (CECC) reported 82 domestic infections! How do they do it? #1 The CECC reported 82 domestic C19 cases. Most of the 82 cases were linked to two clusters: 14 was traced to a worker at Kaohsiung Harbor, and 64 to a factory in Taoyuan’s Free Trade Zone. About 10,000 people work regularly at Kaohsiung Harbor. #2

We dont! #1 Controlling the course of SARS 2003 outbreak in China and elsewhere was the result of several *rapid* public interventions.

Taiwan has recorded very few #COVID19 deaths and infections since the pandemic started. Same time, many European countries, like UK are reporting high number of infections, with serious consequences to the social life and healthcare system. Lets see what makes Taiwan different #1 Image The island sits just 130 km off the coast of mainland China and shuttles thousands of passengers to and from the China daily. Even so, they managed to keep infections low and avoid major, repeatable lockdowns. Many factors have contributed to this winning strategy #2
