An incident at a municipal swimming pool in Taoyuan, Taiwan, involved a high school student who suffered a deep ankle cut from broken and loose tiles inside the pool, requiring two stitches. Despite the pool management's initial filling of the damaged tiles with plastic steel soil and plans for a comprehensive repair during winter, concerns were raised about the potential risks to swimmers' safety due to the deteriorating facility. Calls for urgent renovations and safety improvements at the 30-year-old pool were made by local council members and residents, emphasizing the need to address the root issues rather than temporary fixes.
