Here's the headline from today's Taiwan News:

"Just euthanize us," workers say

For the first 24 hours, there was no food, no masks, and inadequate basic facilities. Today, there are many doctors who are so far refusing to report back to the hospital. Apparently, doctors have more clout than nurses.

Yesterday many nurses staged a protest at one of the entrances to the hospital. Today they are being threatened with some fine or jail term.

A government official has warned everyone not to post "rumors" on the Internet under threat of fine or other punishment.

Not sure what a "rumor" is. Perhaps I'm exposing myself to risk by posting this. Under law, I suppose I should be under quarantine because I am "family" of a hospital staff member and I was staying at her house (albeit for one day before she reported back). But I'll remain a "fugative."
