Taiwan's inclusion would be incredibly important.
During the SARS pandemic, Taiwan had the second-highest number of cases. The fact that we had to go through the People's Republic of China government in order to have any sort of engagement between the Taiwanese government and the World Health Organization caused a huge delay.
Similarly, when we're looking at COVID-19.... Taiwan was incredibly blessed to have had a vice-president who was an epidemiologist. That is the sort of expertise and knowledge that would be incredibly important for helping to stop the spread and look at the sorts of efforts that might be effective at reducing the spread of an infectious disease.
It is definitely a challenge. Unfortunately, everything has to go through the People's Republic of China right now. They are understandably incredibly reluctant to do so, to the point where they have even blocked Taiwan from participating in the annual World Health Assembly, which takes place every May in Geneva and is like a Parliament for global health.
Having these sorts of insights from Taiwan—having all parts of the globe represented—is going to be incredibly important if we're going to be able to effectively stop the next pandemic.
