New Local Outbreak in Taiwan

Post by MJKlein »

After enjoying a Covid-free environment for nearly the duration of the world-wide pandemic, this new cross breed has been circulating around Taiwan.

216 domestic cases reported today:

I know that most places would love to have a daily case count that low, but for us, this is bad.

Our health minister says that the cases have not peaked yet:

Thanks Paul. My daughter has to have a rapid test tomorrow as there is a confirmed case in her school. It will be online learning for at least 10 days. By now, all these things are routine but one still has to be vigilant.

The one thing I am not hearing mentioned at all is how bad (or not) is the illness caused by this strain?

The second article had this to say:
Of the 1,841 domestic COVID-19 cases recorded nationwide between Jan. 1 and April 4, five were classified as moderate to severe infections, while the others were either mild or asymptomatic, Chen said.
So it seems that its not so bad, fortunately.
