Health workers administer COVID-19 vaccines at the Expo Dome in Taipei’s Yuanshan Park yesterday. KMT Taipei City Councilor Wang Hsin-yi (王欣儀) said that she and other KMT councilors had in May called for Taipei to procure vaccines on its own, which she said reflected the will of the city’s residents and would protect their health and safety. Taiwan should follow other countries, which are mulling administering third doses to help combat SARS-CoV-2 variants, he said.
