Taiwan to bar entry to most foreigners, everyone entering to be put into quarantine

Taiwan will ban most foreigners from entering as it seeks to contain the coronavirus outbreak, its government said, according to a Reuters report.

Anyone who enters Taiwan will also have to serve out a home quarantine period of 14 days, the report said, citing its health minister Chen Shih-chung. He said the number of imported cases have “increased sharply.” The island has reported 77 cases to date.

The new measures will be effective from midnight, and the government did not say how long they will be in effect, according to the report. — Weizhen Tan
