Yeah their identification of Chinese nationals entering their country in December has nothing to do with their ability to reduce caseload and death. Yet the Idiot Democrats could only call Trump Xenophobic when 1 month later than the Taiwanese he stopped flights from China.
The only real thing they did better than almost anyone was to shortly after their Chinese Nationals ban they banned all other foreign nationals. The few that had come through before blanket ban were given a thorough questionaire about their wereabouts and made to take quarantine for 2 weeks.
Similar lower levels of cases is seen in other countries who early on adopted similar practice.
"Dr. Jason Wang, director of the centre for policy, outcomes and prevention in Stanford University's school of medicine, said Taiwanese authorities were "vigilant."
"They acted swiftly and they brought in measures to contain the spread of the virus," said Wang, who frequently teaches in Taiwan.
Wang co-authored "Response to COVID-19 in Taiwan: Big Data Analytics, New Technology and Testing," which was published in the journal JAMA. In that analysis, he noted that the island has been on alert for epidemics since the SARS outbreak in 2003.
According to his analysis, Taiwanese officials began boarding flights from Wuhan, the initial epicentre of the outbreak, as early as Dec. 31, 2019, shortly after China disclosed its first cases of the novel coronavirus. Eventually, certain flights were banned and visas for visitors to Taiwan were cancelled."
