The democratic island of Taiwan has reiterated a ban on imports of COVID-19 vaccines made in China, as repeated incursions by the People s Liberation Army (PLA) into its air defense zone in recent days stoked simmering regional tensions.
Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council (MAC) said in a recent statement to Reuters that the island s 23 million population should be cautious about accepting offers of vaccination while living and working in China, and cautiously evaluate the safety and necessity of doing so.
Taiwan, which has never been governed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), nor formed part of the People s Republic of China, has repeatedly warned its citizens of health risks associated with Chinese-made vaccines, and requires anyone vaccinated in China to undergo a stringent 14-day quarantine on arriving home.
