Prior to May 15, Taiwan has about 1290 total cases, in the single week from May 15 to May 22, the cases tripled, increasing by 2552, double the total cases in the past 16 months.
Taiwan is about mid Jan 2020 in Wuhan, which did 100K tests daily back then, compared to Taiwan's about 10K tests daily. And Taiwan has the UK B.117 variant which is more infectious. Despite given 16 months, they don't seem to be prepared for it, little vaccination, positive cases asked to self quarantine at home, which they don't strictly abide, limited tests, a DPP that's more obsessed with playing political game etc.
