Taipei, Nov. 12 (CNA) Taiwan on Friday reported 10 new cases of COVID-19, all contracted overseas, and no new deaths from the disease, according to the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC).
The 10 imported cases involved three Taiwanese nationals and citizens of the United States, Indonesia, Myanmar and India, the CECC said.
They were aged between their teens and 40s, and all tested positive for COVID-19 before the end of their mandatory 14-day quarantine in Taiwan, it said.
To date, Taiwan has confirmed a total of 16,475 COVID-19 cases, of which 14,426 are domestic infections reported since May 15, when the country first recorded more than 100 cases in a single day.
There have only been 123 domestic cases since Aug. 15, however, as daily case numbers have fallen to mostly single digits since then, according to CECC data.
With no new deaths reported Friday, the number of confirmed COVID-19 fatalities in the country remains at 848, with all but 12 recorded since May 15, CECC data showed.
