What if we were
carrying the virus?
:01:07
You can't just move us
anywhere you want to.
:01:09
Some people have
lived here for generations.
:01:12
The government can't make us
leave our homes.

I'll just dump my rubbish anywhere.
To hell with our government.
:01:29
I'll dump my garbage where I can't see it,
or somewhere other people can't see it.
:01:33
Or I'll just put them wherever
other people put them...
:01:37
They should burn us all,
:01:40
together with the garbage!

Taiwan's Health Administration...
:01:46
has issued a statement...
:01:49
in response to sharp criticism
from WHO.
:01:51
Though we haven't been able to identify
the name of this epidemic or its origin,
:01:57
we are very confident that
we can take care of it in the shortest time.

The Water Company
also announced...
:02:06
that starting in the year 2000...
:02:08
it will cut off the water supply
to all quarantine zones.
:02:12
And now here's our report.
:02:14
"After thorough consideration,
We have come to this painful decision."
:02:20
"In compliance with
the government's all-out evacuation"
:02:27
"this company will cut off
all water supplies to quarantine zones..."
:02:32
"starting midnight, January 1 st, 2000."
:02:38
"Or those who still live
in the quarantine zone, please leave."
:02:43
"Do not hesitate."
:02:45
"It would be foolish to assume..."
:02:48
"one can live on rainwater."
:02:52
"It is impossible."
:02:54
Seven days to go now...
:02:57
until the year 2000.
