In response to the online news, Li Boyi admitted on the 7th that he was "really loud" because of his anxiety and apologized for it. However, he clarified that he wore a mask the whole time and did not identify himself as a member of the parliament. He never used official power to exert pressure or exercise privileges. In his reconstruction, he said that because the young girl had a fever and came to the emergency room, the doctor not only did not know how to handle the medicine, etc. No one paid attention to the medicine for half an hour. After he raised his voice to question, more than a dozen doctors and nurses who rushed in only asked him to calm down. No one gave priority to the sick children from the beginning to the end. They criticized the medical treatment for putting the cart before the horse, and questioned that the revelations initiated by the new account on the Internet were smearing a simple medical dispute into a political operation.
Later, a nurse posted on Threads: "Because of the loud noise, I thought it was emergency violence, so of course there were people watching. The child was outside the emergency room at first, and you were asked to reassess and said no. Everyone told you to calm down and wanted to help, but you continued to yell. After the child came in, the pediatrician again cared about the child, but first said that he had been waiting for 30 minutes... instead of answering the pediatrician The doctor's assessment. Just because there is no one in the waiting area, the observation area is full of people. After yelling at the hospital, they took out their mobile phones and yelled "What's your name?" and threatened to sue. They insisted on recording when they were advised not to record. Demand! Ask us to find the supervisor and the medical staff who just talked to you to see you immediately, because you want to sue them for defamation..."
After reading the post, netizens commented, "I didn't even know there were grading procedures in the emergency room. I was still yelling and trying to show off my privileges. I apologized afterwards with no sincerity and implied that the medical staff had no empathy. This is KMT's level." "Does he know what it is like to be surrounded by medical staff in the emergency room?", "A person with terminal cancer", "No one cares if he wants to use his privileges, and he becomes angry when he laughs", "No wonder he is so eager to protect Wan An, because he is also in the powerful circle", "You can tell he is such a person when he speaks loudly on the show. It is true that Xiaoyu said that the Kuomintang has no ability to introspect."

The simple public restroom on Taichung's Shalu Recreation and Landscape Trail is adjacent to a narrow downhill industrial road and is blocked by a plastic-wood screen.
