We are seeing a rampant spread of the Omicron variant in Europe and the Americas. Local cases are already identified in northern Taiwan during the cluster infection incidents at quarantine hotels.
Tainan City Government is stepping up its disease prevention and control efforts. A number of measures are put in place, including asking high-risk workers to get vaccinated and strengthening inspections of quarantine hotel facilities. The government also urges the public to work together in curtailing the virus’ spread and safeguarding our homeland by staying vigilant and practicing basic hygiene measures, including hand-washing and mask-wearing.
