Dunno who needs to hear this but: Conditions which are not communicable do not need to be tracked, period. HIV and gonorrhea and chlamydia are tracked so that the local health department can contact anyone who may have been exposed to go get tested. Only pathogens need tracking.

Superb and important piece from Alice Su 蘇奕安 about the long and painful process of truth and reconciliation in Taiwan. A pointed reminder about what "unification" with the People's Republic of China actually demands of the Taiwanese people. economist.com/1843/2025/05/0…
