Nearly 99% of long-haul aircrews fully vaccinatedALMOST THERE: The CECC said that long-haul aircrews with two jabs and antibodies need to quarantine for five days and follow health management guidelines for nineBy Shelley Shan / Staff reporterNearly 99 percent of aircrew members working on long-haul international flights at Taiwan’s two largest airlines have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, the Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) said yesterday. Flight attendants walk through Kinmen County’s Yangzhai Old Street to support the local tourism industry on March 4. The agency helped the two airlines get their cabin crew members vaccinated as Minister of Transportation and Communications Wang Kwo-tsai (王國材) instructed last week, Wu added. Long-haul crew members who are fully vaccinated and test positive for antibodies must quarantine for five days and follow stricter health management guidelines for another nine days upon completing their flight duties, the center said. Those who have yet to be vaccinated or have only received one dose must quarantine for seven days and follow stricter health-management guidelines for seven days, it added.
