Taiwan reported 75 local COVID infections on Monday, the lowest daily case count since the Level 3 COVID alert came into effect. At his daily press conference, health minister Chen Shih-chung urged the public not to let down its guard.
Monday''s COVID death toll was 20 people, which was little changed from the days before. Chen said the daily death count should start to decline in the coming one to two weeks. He said as more beds free up at hospitals, higher-risk patients with mild symptoms will be transferred in from hotels and quarantine centers for close monitoring.
