Taiwan bans overseas travel for teachers, students
New Taipei mayor Hou You-yi announces ban on students and teachers from overseas travel.

Taiwan has banned all overseas travel for all students in teachers at the high school level and below. That’s due to concerns over the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The Cabinet made the announcement on Monday. It will last until the end of the semester.

The news came as the Central Epidemic Command Center announced more than a dozen new cases of COVID-19 on Sunday and Monday. One of the new cases is a high school student who was on vacation in Europe with his family. That student’s class has been suspended for 14 days, with the students all in quarantine for 14 days.
