Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.


Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened up 207-points this morning from yesterday's close at 27,550
on turnover of 8.8-billion N-T.

The market tumbled nearly 300 points on Monday amid investor concerns over an
A-I bubble - which triggered heavy selling in the bellwether electronics
sector, to pull the broader market into negative territory.



Top trade negotiator claiming Taiwan 'very likely' to secure stacking relief from US
The government's top trade negotiator says the U-S and Taiwan are in the
final stages of trade negotiations and the outcome will "very likely" result
in Taiwan obtaining tariff stacking relief.

According Yang Jen-ni, she firmly believes the negotiating team will achieve
such that goal, as it has been working to ensure that any adjusted tariff
rate for Taiwan will not be added to the existing ones.

Yang says Taiwan might also obtain most favored nation status under Section
232 of the U-S Trade Expansion Act.

She's also denying reports the U-S government is seeking a commitment from
Taiwan to train American workers in the semiconductor manufacturing sector
and other tech industries as part of the trade deal.



CDC marks World AIDS Day with a drag show to fight HIV stigma
And,
The Centers for Disease Control marked World AIDS Day by inviting drag queens
for a performance it says was aimed at breaking down stigma (汙名) against
people living with HIV.

Held under the theme of "Breaking Myths, Keeping Love on Track," the event
featured performances by several local drag queens.

C-D-C Director-General Philip Luo says more than 1,000 HIV infections were
reported last year, and Taiwan's policies on testing, follow-up, and
treatment are on the right track, which has led to a decline in new
infections this year.

Luo also says HIV testing has been more active this year than last year and
the C-D-C has forecast that new HIV infections this year will fall below 900,
to a 22-year low.

Congo Declares Ebola Outbreak Over
A recent Ebola outbreak (爆發) in southern Congo has been declared over by
health officials, after no new cases were reported for 45 days.

Congo's health minister says the outbreak resulted in 53 confirmed cases and
43 deaths.

The government announced the latest outbreak of the virus in September in the
southern Kasai province town of Bulape, and it spread from there to at least
four other towns.

It was Congo's 16th outbreak of the disease since it was first reported in
the country in 1976.
