 The vaccine and antibiotic will help Taiwan to fight the pandemic/Carlos Pueblo

The daily increase of infected Corona Virus cases in Taiwan has created a crisis to the island nation with an admirable control of the pandemic so far. I have figured the statistic in compare with the U.S. and Taiwan, Texas in particular. Taiwan's cases is still lower than Texas while Texas governor has already announced to open up and no mask without any restriction. I understand that Taiwan is not used to this uptick number; however, fighting the pandemic is necessary to have the vaccine to prevent the disease and the antibiotic to cure the infected. While we are waiting for both remedies, we must be patient to wear the mask, to wash our hands often, and to keep distance safely.

There is no reason to be frightened and frightening will help very little. Only the U.S. has plenty of vaccine available for the population to receive the shot and only less than 50% of the U.S. population are willing to take the shot. The rest population of the world must wait for our opportunity to get the shot. At the same time, we must live and move on.

Based on what I learn from watching the You Tube programs in Taiwan. Dr. Bing-Ing Lee of the University of Taiwan Medical School Hospital, an expert of fighting the SARS. He has indicated the there are at least two methods to develop the vaccine, one is the Pfizer and the Moderna way and another one is Japanese way. The approach of the Pfizer and the Mordena succeed while Japanese approach has a bottleneck to be broken. Taiwanese and Chinese approach are following Japanese; therefore, there is no break through. Chinese go ahead with production and marketing worldwide yet there are no scientific numbers to back up. Chinese can say whatever they feel like to say in propaganda.

Dr. Lee also mentions that he can foresee the exhaustion of people's prevention; therefore, a peak would appear after a certain period of time. He still insisting on wearing a mask, washing hands, and keeping a safe distance. He doesn't advocate the lock down if it is not necessary. He insists the frontline medical field personnel should be first to receive the vaccine shots. His experience indicated most of the vaccine produced are wasted due to the hesitation of the shot.

I have three relatives had the infection in the U.S. without any medical attention and recovered. It is amazing, isn't it? If we are not healthy, we must be very careful.
