In response to the escalating Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda, Taiwan's Centers for Disease Control (CDC) announced today that the travel alert for these regions has been raised to Level 3 "Warning." Travelers arriving from these areas must report to quarantine stations and comply with 21 days of self-health management. Those showing symptoms will be immediately transported to designated hospitals, and failure to comply with these measures may result in penalties under the Communicable Disease Control Act.
