韩国政府吁民众戴口罩防疫

由于韩国确诊病例急速暴增,周日更上升至169确诊病例,韩国目前已将武汉冠状病毒(COVID-19)疫情警示等级,提升为最严重的“红色”第四级,以遏制武汉冠状病毒的传播。

韩国目前人口逾5千100万人,自韩国确诊病例暴增以来,目前已逾700例,而韩国也开始提出各项预防措施。

许多韩国人几乎每天都带着口罩生活,而且韩国当局的警告也随处可见如预防感染三撇步:随时戴口罩;使用肥皂洗手超过30秒;并在咳嗽时用手遮盖,避免传染。

此外,韩国人也开发了数个预防感染应用程式和网站,让韩国国民能够即使得知感染者在10公里半径内的位置。

与此同时,韩国重灾区大邱市与清道郡亦被列为“特别护理区”,大部分大邱市的街上已不像往常那般热闹,冷冷清清。

除了教会的“可能感染源”,所有军事基地在检测出三名士兵呈阳性后,均都被封锁,韩国当局亦怀疑其疫情均源自于清道郡。

与此同时,我国政府在早前曾建议新加坡人若健康状态良好,就不需要带上口罩。这样的“贴士”在网络上与报纸上宣传。然而,随着2月7日我国进入橙色警戒状态后,这样的呼吁也随之减低。

陈振声:若领导都戴口罩出席记者会    所有人都恐慌

事实上,新加坡中华总商会(SCCCI)的闭门会议,贸工部长陈振声向一群商人与基层领袖解释为何他们不赞成让健康的人戴口罩 ,其中一段录音被泄露,从中陈振声表示,“我们是否有足够口罩,将取决于三种因素:口罩储备、口罩使用率以及再补口罩的频率。

“如果我们适当地管理,我们将可保留足够的资源”,他断言。

陈振声表示,如果新加坡跟随香港脚步,让政治领袖带着口罩出席活动,必会引起市民恐慌,进而导致口罩严重短缺,因为口罩就如同“纸巾一般”被过度使用。

他说,“如果每个新加坡人都是用外科口罩,我们将会使用500万个口罩。由于我们无法得知疫情什么时候会结束,而且目前供应链也被切断,我们就必须保留外科口罩,让医护工作人员优先使用。

换言之,新加坡政府在多年来仅累积了500万个口罩,供紧急情况使用,所以每个人都将口罩随便使用,它们可能真的“不足以供应所有人”。
