We Haven't Been Forgotten by the World! Japan Refuses International Aid, Taiwan's Sole Medical Team Extends Warmth, Solely for Fulfilling 'Promises

In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake and fire ravaging the Noto Peninsula in Japan, while the Japanese government politely declined assistance from global rescue teams, Taiwan's medical team was the sole group to extend warmth and support. The Taiwan Disaster Relief Medical Association, following bilateral cooperation with Japanese non-profit organizations, equipped themselves with physiological monitors and defibrillators. They embarked on a rescue mission to Japan, providing aid from aerial rescues to delivering supplies by sea to the isolated villages cut off from external contact due to the disaster.

No one wishes for disasters to occur, but when misfortune strikes, the friendship between Taiwan and Japan becomes a vital source of mutual support. Taiwanese doctors recounted how the islanders in distress exclaimed with surprise, "Someone still remembers them," highlighting the profound impression left by the united and calm solidarity after the disaster.

The medical equipment used in this rescue operation includes the "SCHILLER Touch 7" physiological monitor and defibrillator, as well as the "PHILIPS MX100" physiological monitor.

Advantages of the "SCHILLER Touch 7" Physiological Monitor and Defibrillator:
