Taiwan's new crown pneumonia epidemic has rapidly increased, with an increase of 180 people diagnosed in a single day yesterday (14th).
Taiwan is a hot spot for Hong Kong immigrants. Zhu Hanqiang, director of the Green Earth Environment Initiative who moved to Taiwan more than a year ago, said frankly that some locals fear that the epidemic will worsen and supermarkets will also be closed, so they should store food first, including staple foods and noodles in the supermarket. It is also close to being cleared up. Since Taiwan does not have enough vaccines, I planned to return to Hong Kong during the summer vacation with my family to visit relatives and friends and get vaccinated.
Another Hong Kong citizen who has moved to Taiwan for four years said that because she still has to go to work and school, the flow of people in the market has not significantly decreased recently. She believes that the authorities can control the epidemic as soon as possible, so she has no intention of returning to Hong Kong to "evade the epidemic."
There is still a supply of masks
Taiwan’s epidemic has rebounded, and the Executive Yuan announced that Taipei and New Taipei City will be upgraded to three-level epidemic prevention alert today, and real-name registration is also required for different places.
Zhu Hanqiang, who lives in Taipei's Shilin District, said bluntly that if the epidemic spreads to the central and southern regions, the worst plan is that the number of diagnoses in the next few days will "geometrically" rise, and he is also worried about whether the medical equipment is sufficient to cope with it.
He had been to a supermarket a few days ago, and staple foods and noodles were nearly wiped out.
On the online food ordering platform, noodles, etc. are also sold out, while meat and vegetables are still available.
In terms of anti-epidemic supplies, masks in pharmacies were quickly sold out, but there are still supplies.
He also believes that the real-name mask rationing mechanism established in the early stage of the epidemic is useful and can avoid the situation of looting masks in Hong Kong early last year.

Only AstraZeneca has insufficient vaccines in Taiwan
Regarding Taipei's current three-level epidemic prevention alert, Zhu bluntly said that "the effect is tight." For example, there are sports games that must be postponed; restaurants have also greatly reduced dine-in food, and many people have switched to takeaways.
He also believes that since the outbreak last year, Taiwanese people are accustomed to epidemic prevention, and the government's case tracking work is also effective.
However, the number of local new crown vaccines is not sufficient, only AstraZeneca vaccine. Therefore, Zhu Hanqiang planned to return to Hong Kong for vaccination. However, considering that quarantine is also required in Hong Kong or Taiwan and may not be able to vaccinate Fubitai vaccine in time, he has not yet decided. Whether to return to Hong Kong or not, "I have experienced many variables since the epidemic, but I can only settle down with the situation."

The market is not deserted
Another Hong Kong resident, Miss Lu, who has moved to Taiwan for four years, is a housewife. She described that many Taiwanese are nervous about the changes in the epidemic. Because of fear of access restrictions, they rush to buy food, and the supermarkets have sold out noodles and meat.
She also pointed out that although all entertainment venues are closed and real-name registration is required to enter and exit all places, they still have to go to work and school, so the market is not deserted. "Two days in the morning, there are many people in Ximending and Tamsui Old Street."
Many confirmed cases in Taiwan are related to tea art houses. Ms. Lu pointed out that tea art houses are not a city in the local area. She said with a smile that "there is a lot of difference between the previous dance groups in Hong Kong, and some people will dance off the tea dance."
She also believes that in recent days, Taiwanese people’s awareness of epidemic prevention has increased significantly. For example, alcohol-based handrubs have been added to elevators in buildings, body temperature must be taken when entering buildings, and everyone on the street is also wearing masks.
Lu said frankly that he is now "worried a little, but not to panic." He is confident in Taiwan's control of the epidemic and has no intention of returning to Hong Kong for vaccination.
