Notes

Taiwan's only nationwide alert of the pandemic fell in the second and third quarters of 2021, the quarters in which the United States' own records describe the chip shortage as ongoing (Exs. ECO-A-077, ECO-A-105 to -107).

Retrieval note

The CECC's own July 8, 2021 bulletin; the May 19, 2021 original bulletin was not located in the CDC's paginated archive on Sept. 26, 2026.
