Getting blood tests before you arrive in TW is against US law, regardless of other countries. To have a U.S. doctor sign your physical before you arrive, including the blood tests, is also against the law.

Taiwan has no legal bearing to allow these tests to reflect upon the physical outcome of a citizen of the U.S., therefore allowing for the doctors to be sued within the U.S. If TW is legally bearing, the tests should be administered within their own borders. If not, something's amiss.

Some schools require this blood test before a teacher arrives. Fact is, their own country(TW,) should be responsible, meaning, a biasness exists that they won't reveal.

Notwithstanding, in some parts of TW, prostitution is legal, creating victimization/illegal philandering. This leaves for much malfeasance. If there is a school that requires such tests, you too, may be sued. Twisted Evil Evil or Very Mad
