客工宿舍疫情爆发 陈川仁称不应仅归因于宿舍环境

国会议长陈川仁认为,客工宿舍疫情大爆发,不能仅仅归因于宿舍内的糟糕生活环境,反之冠状病毒19的高度传染力和群体住在封闭住所,更可能助长疫情传播。

陈川仁在2014至2015年间出任人力部长。根据《海峡时报》报导,他是在昨日(7日)出席客工宿舍一项活动期间,接受媒体采访时这么表示。

陈川仁认为,不应把客工宿舍糟糕生活环境,与冠病疫情混为一谈。他举例,假设大学生继续留在大学宿舍,也可能出现大规模爆发。“如果人们住在密集场所,加上病毒传染的性质,会形成疫情爆发。”

截至5月7日,本地新增741病例,累计确诊增至2万0939例。

陈川仁称无意为一些“恶劣”宿舍环境的个案“洗白”,不过也不能一竿子打翻整船人,认为所有宿舍环境都是如此。他也认为,对于那些违反法律的雇主仍应采取行动。

陈川仁曾指他国被迫锁国,因未能管控病毒传播

不过,回溯3月25日,陈川仁曾指出,其他国家被迫转向“封境”措施,是因为未能一开始管控住传播,导致后来病例数增长、医疗体系不堪重负。

“这正是在中国、伊朗、意大利发生的事,接下来会是… …?”他也指当前这些国家只能采取封锁减缓病毒传播,但他担忧可能已错过防堵窗口。陈川仁也指我国还在可控范围,还不到上述国家的地步,因为一开始就已采取措施,例如香港、台湾和韩国也展示他们如何应对疫情。
