The World Health Organization (WHO) released the latest situation report (situation report- 14) of 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak. The number of confirmed cases in Taiwan was mistakenly announced as 13 and listed under “Taipei, China”.

The Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) has made a protest against the WHO report and requested WHO to revise the number of confirmed cases in Taiwan, from 13 to 10, and correct our country name through the National IHR Focal Point (NFP).
