“TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — As the number of cases from the White House coronavirus cluster mushroomed over the weekend, media outlets, analysts, and entertainers on Twitter observed that more of President Trump’s associates have been confirmed with the Wuhan Coronavirus than Taiwan, New Zealand, and Vietnam combined.
On Oct. 1, Trump’s close adviser Hop Hicks tested positive for coronavirus, with Trump and the First Lady testing positive the next day. By Oct. 3, both Newsweek and analyst Nguyen Phuong Linh pointed out that 14 people closely associated with Trump and the Rose Garden event had contracted the disease, surpassing the total for new coronavirus cases that day in Taiwan, New Zealand, and Vietnam.
In fact, Taiwan and Vietnam announced zero new cases of the virus on Oct. 3, while New Zealand announced one new imported case that day and zero local cases. It took Taiwan two weeks, from Sept. 19 to Oct. 3, to accumulate 14 cases, all of which were imported.”
