Taiwan looks to have successfully brought the latest Covid-19 outbreak under control with no new local Covid-19 cases or deaths on Monday.
The average number of cases fell to less than three per day over the last week, according to Bloomberg calculations based on government data, the lowest since early January when the omicron variant started spreading widely in the community. That situation is in stark contrast with the thousands of new cases Hong Kong is reporting each day or the growing outbreak in mainland China.
