According to Taiwan media reports, the epidemic in Taiwan has left the plateau period, with new cases being less than 40,000 for five consecutive days, and dropped to less than 30,000 on the 24th. Wang Bisheng, commander of the "Command Center" of the Taiwan authorities' epidemic epidemic, announced that four major loosening measures will be implemented from November 7, so that people's lives will gradually return to normal.
1. The confirmed cases have also been changed to "7+0"
The isolation measures for people who have been confirmed have been changed from "7+7" seven-day isolation and independent health management in the next seven days to "7+0". If the screening test is negative for the first time, the independent health management can be lifted in advance.
2. 3+4 home isolation has been changed to "0+7 independent epidemic prevention"
home isolation has "going into history", and only confirmed cases are left to be isolated. Starting from November 7, whether those living with the same contacts receive 3 doses (vaccine additives), they will take "0+7 independent epidemic prevention", which means that the last day of contact with the confirmed patient is the 0th day, and the next day is the first day of independent epidemic prevention. In addition, four doses of quick screening reagents for contacts will be provided, and quick screening will be provided on the day of contact and when there are symptoms.
As for the independent epidemic prevention location, it is in line with the principle of 1 person and 1 room. It is necessary to have an independent bathroom to avoid contact with high-risk subjects such as elderly people over 65 years old, children under 6 years old, immunity insufficiency and low immunity. It is also prohibited to go to the hospital to visit and accompany the disease. It is recommended to postpone medical or examinations that are not urgently needed.
When you go out, you can go out by just holding the negative result quickly within 2 days. However, masks must be worn throughout the whole process during going out, working and school. If you have dietary needs, you can take them off temporarily, but they must be worn immediately after the meal is over. If you are dining in a restaurant outside, you should wear a mask immediately after leaving your seat. The "command center" will not track whether the people have indeed implemented the above epidemic prevention regulations, and will be managed independently by the people.
3. Cancel the three-dose order and quick screening restrictions
From November 7, people will no longer need to get a full 3 doses of vaccines when entering and leaving eight major industries, gyms, or participate in religious activities (circling around, incense groups) or group tourism, and they will no longer need to receive a full 3 doses of vaccines, and they will not even need to present a quick screening negative certificate.
4. Body temperature measurement in business and public places
From November 7th, business places will no longer be mandatory for business places to take their temperature in public places. Wang Bisheng explained that the main reason for the removal is that the temperature monitoring of new coronavirus pneumonia is not very effective because many confirmed cases "do not necessarily have fever", so they are removed from mandatory norms.
However, each venue can still evaluate whether the temperature needs to be measured according to the needs of its business or service. It is recommended that hospitals and accommodation long-term care institutions can still perform measurements.
Campus epidemic prevention part
Whether or not the vaccine additives are completed, they will be "0+7 independent epidemic prevention". Faculty, staff and students at all levels of schools and kindergartens are exempt from home isolation due to confirmed cases of family members living in the same room or roommates in the same dormitory, and all implement 0+7 independent epidemic prevention measures. Children's after-school care service center and short-term cram school will be handled in accordance with the procedures.
has symptoms and will not go to school (class) to attend classes or work. If you have no symptoms, you can hold the negative result quickly within 2 days and you can go to school (class) to attend classes and work.
Schools and kindergartens at all levels, children's after-school care service centers, community universities, short-term cram schools, senior learning centers, social education centers and libraries, competitive and leisure sports venues and swimming pools, etc., will decide on their own health monitoring methods such as body temperature measurement based on business and epidemic prevention needs.
