A worsening coronavirus outbreak in Taiwan has raised urgent questions about how the virus slipped past Taiwan's "gold standard" defences, and if the country can quickly return to a zero-Covid life.

In 2020, the island state of 24 million people was producing extraordinary numbers: fewer than 1,000 cases, about 90% of them detected in recent arrivals, zero infection leaks from quarantine, a death toll of 12, and 253 days without a single local case.
