Taipei and New Taipei continue to be the areas with the most cases. New Taipei had 129 cases, with 26 cases in Zhonghe. Taipei had 70 cases, with 31 cases in Wanhua. VACCINE DISTRIBUTION BEGINS IN TAIWAN Vaccination begins shortly after the 1,000th confirmed case of COVID-19 in Taiwan. Taiwan received its first batch of vaccines, 116,500 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine, earlier this month. Premier Su Tseng-chang and Minister of Health Chen Shih-chung were the first to receive the vaccine, in a move aimed at demonstrating that the

vaccine is safe.

TAIPEI AND NEW TAIPEI SHIFT TO LEVEL THREE ALERT AFTER PREMIER SU TSENG-CHANG and Minister of Health and Welfare Chen Shih-chung announced a shift to level three alert status for Taipei and New Taipei this morning at a 10:45 AM press conference. This took place after an explosion of 180 domestic cases overnight, with five imported cases. The rest of Taiwan remains on level two, though Taoyuan later announced that it was THIRTEEN NEW CASES OF DOMESTIC TRANSMISSION ANNOUNCED THE CENTRAL EPIDEMIC Command Center, which coordinates Taiwan’s response to COVID-19, announced 13 new cases due to domestic transmission today and 12 imported cases.. Three new cases were linked to a tea house in Wanhua, adding to two yesterday, with much concern about the possibility of cases spreading in a densely populated area with a large elderly population, and sex work RCA RULING PAYS COMPENSATION TO ONLY 24 OF 246 PLAINTIFFS THE LONG-RUNNING RCA case, one of Taiwan’s major class-action lawsuits against chemical pollution and its effects on the health of Taiwanese factory workers, continues to be unresolved. This can be observed in a ruling by the High Court last week, in which the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) was ordered to pay 54.7 million NTD to only 24 of 246 plaintiffs.

The backlog of tests is resolved now, so there are no backlog cases. 22 deaths were announced. The current death rate is 2.8%, which is higher than the global average, with the CECC stressing that this is often due to the age of the patients and because of underlying conditions. COVID-19 CLUSTER BREAKS OUT AMONG CHINA AIRLINE PILOTS A COVID-19 CLUSTER linked to a quarantine hotel at the Novotel Taoyuan International Airport hotel and among China Airlines pilots has led to the cancellation of some public events and the contact tracing of those infected. This marks the end to two-and-a-half months in which Taiwan saw no cases of domestic transmission of COVID-19. Taiwan did not see any cases of domestic transmission COVID OUTBREAK IN MIGRANT DORMITORIES IN TAIWAN: SOME 8 hours ago · ON JUNE 4TH, two COVID-related news items dominated the press briefing by the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) in Taiwan.First was the planned arrival of 1.24 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine provided by the Japanese government. And second was the report of a cluster of infections in an electronics factory in Miaoli County, affecting mostly migrant workers. DISCRIMINATORY POLICIES TARGET MIGRANT WORKERS IN WAKE OF 18 hours ago · COVID-19 CLUSTERS broke out among migrant workers at electronics factories in Miaoli over the weekend, with 243 workers at three factories testing positive for COVID-19. Around 70% to 80% of those that tested positive were migrant workers. Close TAIPEI CITY GOVERNMENT FACES CONTROVERSY OVER CLINIC’S THE TAIPEI CITY government and, in particular, Mayor Ko Wen-je have come under scrutiny after a controversy regarding vaccine allocations to the Good Liver Clinic (好心肝診所), which is accused of violating the priority order for vaccinations. Ko is accused of cronyism to benefit the head of the clinic, a former mentor, and the Taipei city government is accused of having tried to avoid CHINA LIKELY TO HIT BACK OVER VACCINE DIPLOMACY TO TAIWAN Brian Hioe is one of the founding editors of New Bloom.

TRUMP HAS MADE HYPOCRITES OF CHINESE DISSIDENTS AND HUMAN THE CHINESE COMMUNIST Party (CCP)’s belligerent behavior at home and abroad has brought together adversaries of different ideologies, making for some rather odd bedfellows. The striking difference between the values of former Chinese dissidents and those which pro-democracy Hong Kong media seem to champion could not be more contradictory with those of Donald Trump, whom they TAG: VACCINE DONATION FROM US How Taipei Became the Home of Live Comedy During the Pandemic

ANNUAL LABOR DEMONSTRATION PROTESTS AMERICAN PORK, WITH CONTROVERSY REGARDING KMT CO-OPTATION CLAIMS Brian Hioe __11/23/2020 The annual Autumn Struggle labor demonstration was held yesterday in Taipei. Autumn Struggle is traditionally one of the major labor demonstrations in Taiwan, along with International Workers’ Day on May 1st.

REVIEW: MEMORIES TO CHOKE ON, DRINKS TO WASH THEM DOWN (夜香・鴛鴦・深水埗) Brian Hioe __11/14/2020 Memories to Choke on, Drinks to Wash Them Down, directed by Leung Ming-kai and Kate Reilly, stands out for its ability to evocatively conjure up the quotidian realities of Hong Kong. In many ways, the film, consisting of three shorts depicting everyday dramas set in Hong Kong and one documentary segment, proves a highly poetic one—a snapshot of Hong Kong as it is today, as well as a Hong Kong that may
