Representing Taiwan in the Asian Cup women’s football team today beat Thailand 3-0, taking an important step forward to the World Cup. However, after the game today, it was reported that many members of the team were diagnosed, which caused shock. Zhou Chunmi, a legislator of the DPP, called on the Sports Administration to report to the CDC on matters related to the entry of special planes and special projects.
Zhou Chunmi said that after the news of the diagnosis came out, the office communicated directly with the Football Association. The Football Association responded that if the team members boarded the plane through ordinary channels and returned to China, if the test result was positive, they would not be able to board the plane. If the Sports Department can coordinate the special plane transfer, the players can return home with more peace of mind.
In addition, regarding the quarantine matters after the entry of the team, Zhou Chunmi also said that the Football Association has arranged anti-epidemic hotels. However, the Football Association is also worried at present. After the news of the diagnosis came out, the representative teams were collectively arranged to be sent to the centralized quarantine center.
Zhou Chunmi called for this, and hoped that the CDC would establish standards in a special way so that players could complete the entry quarantine in the most comfortable way.
The Sports Department responded that the special plane and entry and quarantine matters are being coordinated with the command center and relevant units after all parties have responded. If a player cannot board the plane due to a positive test, the required fee will be subsidized, so that the players can participate without any worries.
