新冠肺炎（武漢肺炎）疫情持續延燒，不過台灣卻在一周內拿下3次零確診的紀錄。對此，黨政人士表示，這不僅證明台灣防疫成果優異外，也代表全民在防疫措施上相當積極努力，相信台灣士氣會因此提昇；由於台灣防疫成果的展現，世界各國也正高度關注我方的防疫作為。
該人士透露，尤其網紅阿滴和知名設計師聶永真等人從民間自發的《紐約時報》募資行動最受矚目，該團隊透過版面、文字設計展現台灣近期大力提倡的 「#TaiwanCanHelp」精神，不僅讓美國政要在Twitter轉發，也讓WHO不得不正面回應廣告的訴求，有效提昇台灣國際能見度。
此外，《時代雜誌》昨（16）日也刊登總統蔡英文以《台灣總統：我的國家如何預防COVID-19大爆發》為題所寫的專文，具體向國際社會分享台灣面對新冠肺炎的防疫經驗。

對於蔡英文的投書，黨政人士指出，《時代雜誌》把蔡英文的肖像和文章都放在網站最明顯的版位，給了台灣十足的份量，也證明此次全球防疫戰役中，台灣成為世界矚目的角色。
近期蔡英文的推特人數也不斷飆升，今（17）日晚間也推出慶祝推特破百萬追蹤的影片。蔡英文社群操盤手、民進黨副秘書長林鶴明表示，蔡英文的推特在今年1月11日總統大選時，追蹤人數為661K，在公民社會和行政團隊的努力下，台灣在國際輿論的關注度持續提高，也連帶讓蔡英文推特在本周突破了百萬粉絲追蹤。據了解，4月17日時已來到了1017K，3個月總計成長約35.6萬人。
In our battle against #COVID19, social media reminds us that we’re #StrongerTogether. As my Twitter reaches 1 million followers, I want to thank you for supporting #Taiwan. I’ll keep sharing stories about how #TaiwanCanHelp, & I hope you’ll keep sharing your stories with me: pic.twitter.com/zaaiwdpchK

從慶祝推特破百萬追蹤的影片中可見，蔡英文除了用流利英語直接和推特上的朋友溝通外，也穿插了許多「台灣隊」的畫面；另外，影像還出現台灣口罩生產的情形，以及台灣醫療防疫人員的工作點滴，具體展現台灣隊的防疫實力。值得一提的是，影片中也能看到台灣過去和友邦的互動、合作過程，以及這一次捐助各國醫護人員口罩的飛機貨運畫面。
林鶴明指出，蔡英文在影片中表達很榮幸見證「台灣人民不畏政治壓力，一次又一次無私地渴望回饋國際社會，並且傳達台灣想要參與世界的決心。」林鶴明接著說，這也是蔡英文在面對防疫工作中，向國際社會展現她身為國家領導人的重要宣示。
林鶴明最後說，社群媒體提供一個自由開放的平台，讓台灣可以和全球對話，台灣除了一個星期內三度零確診的好成績外，從紐約時報的群眾募資廣告、蔡英文總統投書《時代雜誌》，以及今天的Twitter百萬英文影片，連續三波來自民間公民社會以及蔡英文的國際宣傳，都可以讓國際社會注意到台灣的防疫表現，更能證明「#TaiwanCanHelp」不是說說而已，而是具體實踐。
此外，蔡英文在影片中使用的特製MIT陶杯也有亮點，上面印有「TAIWAN CAN HELP」字樣讓不少網友紛紛留言喊「台灣NO.1！」

Hi, as my Twitter reaches 1 million followers, this milestone comes at a unique and unprecedented time in history, when connectivity has a greater meaning. Social media helps me communicate with the people of Taiwan, but it also helps Taiwan connect with the world.
The global battle against COVID-19 has changed life as we know it. The world is full of uncertainty about what the future holds. But if this crisis has taught us anything, it is this: Together, we can be more than the sum of our parts.
The people of Taiwan have shown me this since day one. Our society has united and risen to meet this challenge in so many ways. Taiwanese medical teams are working day and night to ensure our citizens and friends abroad are better prepared to fight the coronavirus.
Private sector manufacturers have dedicated their resources and capabilities to form “Team Taiwan,” allowing us to dramatically increase production of critical supplies such as face masks and protective equipment.
At the same time, our government has received countless messages from citizens across Taiwan, asking how they can personally donate supplies and funds to those most in need in the international community.
Taiwan is determined to do our part to help end this pandemic by donating supplies, cooperating on research, and sharing our experiences. We know that we cannot afford to stand idle when the world is in need.
It has been my honor as president to witness Taiwanese people's selfless desire to give back to the international community time and again, despite political pressure.
Taiwan wants to engage with the world. And social media gives us a free, open platform to enter the global conversation.
Pandemics have no borders. But fortunately for us, social media transcends distance as well. Coming together and sharing our stories reminds us that we are not alone. We will get through this. And we will do it together.
I want to thank you all for supporting Taiwan, for sending us strength and encouragement from all corners of the world. And I hope that by sharing Taiwan’s experiences and successes through Twitter, I can also share with you hope for a brighter tomorrow.
