The CECC further explained that disease prevention and control measures for crew members of Taiwanese airlines receiving two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine would also be adjusted. After they return to Taiwan, crew members of Taiwanese airlines should abide by the new disease prevention and control measures listed below after two weeks following their inoculation.
Long-haul flights: 7 days of self-health management, testing on the last day of the period; those acquiring a negative test result can be released.
