    All easily found on the first page of a Google search with the words Taiwan and Covid when looking at the News.

    That's what I thought. "go read".

    But when I go to google and look at the news with the terms you suggest, I see nothing to indicate you were even remotely truthful. All I see is an "easing" on the number of quarantine days for travelers - but that wasn't put into place until last week, and the chart I posted clearly shows considerably before then.

    As i suspected.

    COVID-19: Taiwan preparing to return to normal
    ‘GRADUAL’ PLAN: The premier called China’s lockdowns ‘cruel,’ but said Taiwan would continuously review its strategies to reduce the stress frontline healthcare workers face
      • [​IMG]
    The nation’s eased COVID-19 restrictions have allowed people to live relatively normal lives during the latest local outbreak, and the government would continue reviewing its disease prevention strategies to help everyone return to normalcy, Premier Su Tseng-chang (蘇貞昌) said yesterday.

    Su made the remark after holding a larger-than-normal disease prevention meeting at the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) yesterday.

    After the new “3+4” home isolation policy was implemented last week, the number of people in isolation dropped to about 20,000, he said, adding that as 99.7 percent of local COVID-19 cases are mild or asymptomatic, the government has enough healthcare capacity to treat cases with moderate or severe complications.

    So you provide a story without a link so we can't even determine how many days old it is. These changes in Covid restrictions in Taiwan regarding home isolation time and other factors are restricted.

    There are plenty of news stories on the first page of a Google Search outlining Taiwan dropping a zero Covid strategy and opening up for tourism in recent days.

    You still fail to address that the number of daily cases in Taiwan is lower than the number of daily Covid cases in Florida -- despite Taiwan having a greater population (and much more testing). If the increase in Covid cases in Taiwan is a fiasco then the current situation in Florida must be a total disaster.

    You told me to google as your answer to my question to back up what you claimed. I did. I see nothing that supports your statements, and you still don't back them up with anything.

    I showed you one of the articles from google - where you told me to go. If you want a date:

    https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2022/05/02/2003777553 May 2nd, two days ago.

    And then, because you know you've been exposed yet again on bullshit you bring up Florida. Florida has nothing to do with the chart I posted, that you challenged. its just an attempt to deflect. You're usual M.O.

    Yet you ignore the point that Florida’s current case rate is much worst than Taiwan’s.

    And also ignore all the articles outline the stop of a zero Covid policy in Taiwan and the re-opening of tourism.

    No, I don't ignore it. I'm just posting the chart on Taiwan as yet more evidence that the sCiENce you worship is horseshit. :) You're the one who is ass-chapped about Florida. I never even brought up Florida.

    As for the articles you claim to exist, lets see them. I've requested multiple times, you just keep saying they are there but not posting any of them.

    Also, and only because YOU mentioned it, Taiwan has more active cases (about double) than Florida with roughly the same population according to Worldmeters. So you're kinda wrong about that, too.

    I don't have a chart daily. Do you?

    Let's be clear once more, because you're doing a lot of gymnastics here to make things work out for you.

    I posted a chart showing the case rate spike in Taiwan. THATS IT. Here is the chart.

    [​IMG]

    Above the chart, it stated: Cases in Taiwan are now up 20,135% in the past two months with consistent 96-98% mask compliance, which just goes to show you how important it is that everyone wear masks to prevent cases from rising

    The entire point of the chart is to show - yet again in like the 1000th example - how mask mandates had no effect whatsoever on case rates.

    You then started to tell me that this spike was because the massive tourism engine in Taiwan (who knew??) started back up, and Taiwan backed away from its "zero COVID" policy. When I asked you to support these statements, you told me to "go read" and google it.

    I did, and nothing there supported your claim. You then tried to spin it to me posting an article that didn't back you up with "you didn't show the date". I then showed the date, two days ago.

    Then you went into a comparison on Florida and Taiwan (which came out of nowhere, but you were desperate) and said "You still fail to address that the number of daily cases in Taiwan is lower than the number of daily Covid cases in Florida -- despite Taiwan having a greater population (and much more testing)" - as if this was the discussion point all along (it wasn't). But for giggles, I went to Worldometers where the active cases in much higher than Florida, but now you're trying to say the cases on May 2nd are worse in Florida. Was this before or after 3PM that day?

    I couldn't care less. You're a clown, and this exchange is just the latest evidence to that fact. Fact.
