The culture ministry says that lovers of the arts can relax and enjoy the performances of foreign artists, as they have been fully screened for COVID-19. 

The ministry was answering questions about Russian pianist Daniil Trifonov who is scheduled to perform five concerts in Taiwan beginning October 16. His last performance was in the Netherlands on October 4. This means that his quarantine period will be less than the usual 14 day requirement.
