Two additional cases were reported in a group of 7 Americans on a self-guided tour, and two more in an Egyptian tour group. Due to a cluster infection within an institution, Commander Chen Shih-chung also initiated overnight testing and quarantining of relevant staff at Taoyuan and Chang Gung Hospitals starting in the early hours of the 22nd.
In addition, Professor Chang Shang-chun’s two doctor sons originally had plans to go abroad. The one scheduled to depart on March 4th went ahead, but the one scheduled for March 14th canceled. The doctor who traveled to the U.S. on March 4th posted on Facebook about skiing and watching NBA games, which raised questions. At today’s press conference, Chang Shang-chun did not appear, and Minister Chen Shih-chung responded on his behalf, noting that the timing of the trip to the U.S. posed no issues at the time, but following the regulations for quarantine upon returning to Taiwan is the key point.
