>Taiwan has eliminated community spread It's possible, but I would not be surprised to see community acquired cases pop up in Taiwan at some point. Testing is currently extremely limited. For example Taiwan performed 94 tests yesterday[1]. This is for a population of around 24 million. Since June 18, the average number of daily tests was 153 [1][2], which are almost entirely nationals returning from overseas. Compare this to ~700k/day in the US for a population of ~330 million. The ubiquitous wearing of masks and attention to hand hygiene etc. in Taiwan makes it more likely that any community transmission will be a lot slower (and thus slower to lead to a serious case that is more likely to be detected), but could easily still be a greater than zero.
