TECRO welcomes the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) announcement on August 4th that Secretary Alex Azar II will lead a delegation to visit Taiwan. During the visit, Secretary Azar will meet President Tsai and other senior officials, as well as experts in the field of public health. The visit will be the first Cabinet-level official since 2014, and the highest-level visitor from the U.S. since 1979, further demonstrating the strong Taiwan-U.S. partnership.
During this historic visit, TECRO looks forward to robust engagements on ways democracies can jointly respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, while further strengthening Taiwan-U.S. cooperation in areas of medical research, supply chain security, and global health. Taiwan will continue to work closely with the U.S. and other international partners to respond to challenges arising from the current pandemic and make contributions to the field of global health.
