Taiwan sees up to 2,000 new arrivals per day who need a place to stay during their mandatory 14-day quarantine, with an average of close to 20,000 people in quarantine every day, said CECC spokesman Chuang Jen-hsiang (莊人祥) at a press conference in Taipei.
"There are not enough quarantine hotels to satisfy demand," Chuang said.
At present, almost all people who enter Taiwan, whether Taiwanese or foreign nationals, are required to be quarantined for 14 days to prevent COVID-19 from being brought in from other countries. [FULL STORY]
