Taiwan Coronavirus | 20 Rapid response Strategy to combat Covid 19
top ways that Taiwan is fighting the coronavirus just take a look at these
facts four percent of Taiwanese work in China 2,000 Chinese come every day to
Taiwan as tourists the corona virus outbreak happened there in Chinese New
Year and this is the busiest time Taiwan for traveling it's very similar to
Thanksgiving Taiwan was ranked the second highest risk in the entire world
for the corona virus yet Taiwan has the lowest incident rate in the entire world
and don't forget Taiwan is a democracy so here are 20 quick facts of things
that Taiwan did to keep its country safe from the corona virus
number 20 extremely proactive before the first case in Taiwan was ever documented
number 19 monitoring people from Wuhan this was back when there's only 27
people that were diagnosed with this disease
number 18 banning travel from Wuhan before any other country did and also
banning several other cities in China from flying to Taiwan number 17
temperature monitors in the airport and because of the SARS outbreak there
airport already had a ton of temperature gauges number 16 anyone coming from an
affected area had to have a 14 day quarantine and they would have it on
their cell phone with an app and if they violate it they would be huge fines and
this was even if they were feeling okay they had to do this home quarantine
number 15 huge fines if you didn't report anything
number 14 retesting those people even if they were negative number 13 greatly
increasing mass production and number 12 taking the military actually having the
Morgan factories to produce even more mass number 11 educating everybody about
hand-washing number 10 educating people that not
everybody shows symptoms number 9 letting people know it's not about your
race or ethnicity but it's about who you've contacted and that is what
determines if you would have corona virus or not number 8 every office
school and community center would check your temperature before you entered
number 7 having hand sanitizers everywhere
number 6 having health insurance that covers 99 percent of the citizens and if
you have to go into quarantine your food shelter and lodging is all
covered by the insurance so you don't have to worry about anything
number 5 Taiwan is a culture of wearing masks so that helps prevent corona virus
from spreading number for tracking the last 14 days of where a person had been
especially if they've been overseas and relaying that to the hospitals number 3
ration masks and saying a limit to how many you could buy number 2 the
communicable disease control act what this allows is in these rare
circumstances that can take a little bit more control and
that helps with producing more mass and doing the protocols that they needed to
to make sure that the country's safe number one just a collaboration of the
government the people and private businesses all working together to make
sure the country is safe so I went through that kind of fast but those were
20 ways that Taiwan is doing things to prevent coronavirus from being a big
crisis in their country and I wish more of the world would use Taiwan as an
example they've already laid out what you need
to do they were the second highest country at risk and yet one of the
lowest rates in the entire world let's all be a little bit more like
Taiwan
