杨莉明宣称 客工宿舍疫情摆脱“危机模式”
早前,曾有列为无冠病19的安全客工宿舍,再传出新病例,不过人力部长杨莉明仍坚称,所有客工宿舍已排除冠病,并脱离“危机模式”。
杨莉明是在周六(15日)在官方脸书发文指出,客工宿舍从“危机模式”,转移到三个关键阶段:安全重开(Safe Re-opening)、安全转移( Safe Transition )和安全国家( Safe Nation)等较为可持续性的模式。
他解释,在初步阶段专注于阻断措施期间拯救性命,随着逐步开放,将把精力放在保障生活和预防新感染。
杨莉明也强调,由近3千名政府部门人员组成、包括约千名人力部人员的政府跨部门防疫工作小组,于疫情期间致力照顾客工需求。
她称在14日与总理公署部长陈诗龙医生,在人力部服务中心接待国务资政兼国家安全统筹部长张志贤,汇报防疫工作小组进展,也与不同团队商谈了解面对的挑战。
根据8月12日文告,一栋原本已确认没冠病病例的客工宿舍,却再发现新确诊,800客工再次被隔离。当时卫生部未透露是哪家宿舍,仅表示被隔离员工增至2万2800人。
本月16日,本地新增86冠病确诊,新增病例大多是隔离中的宿舍客工。卫生部是在本月11日,宣称除了仍在接受隔离的17栋客工专用宿舍大楼,所有宿舍摆脱冠病疫情。
