These patients had traveled recently to countries including Egypt, France, Spain, Austria, the Czech Republic, and the U.S.The only local transmission was Patient #103, a high-school student in Northern Taiwan. He is believed to have contracted the virus from his classmate, who was diagnosed with the coronavirus last week. Speaking at a news conference on Thursday, health minister Chen Shih-chung said that imported cases still outnumbered local infections, meaning that there was no need to panic over the risk of community transmission.
