Among them, seven died and 430 recovered while only six patients are still receiving treatment in isolation wards, the agency said.

From Sunday, the authorities lifted crowd control policies at mass social activities including sports games and entertainment activities as well as at restaurants.

Weddings attended by more than 250 guests were allowed.

The island’s railway and high-speed railway companies also resumed the supply of foods and drinks on the train.

The Palace Museum in Taipei also removed the crowd control measure from Saturday and visitors didn’t have to wear face masks inside the museum.
