张建宗:本港短期有逾3,000万个口罩推出市面
政务司司长张建宗见传媒,指出政府留意到市民对口罩供应的关注,已积极进行全球采购,接触了10多个国家,共140多个供应商。由本月至目前为止,政府已购买了500万个口罩,由上星期开始陆续运抵香港。就市面上的口罩供应,特区政府亦联络到在内地的港资口罩生产商,要求他们生产供港的口罩,而他们反应正面。
他又指,本月至今特区政府及海关已与内地部门合作,促成了接近800万个口罩运抵香港作零售之用,相信将会陆续在市面推出。另外,海关亦正安排超过2,400万个口罩抵港,会投放至零售市场出售,总共会有逾3,000万个口罩推出市面。
在本地生产方面,目前惩教署每日生产5万个口罩。现时会安排24小时运作,希望将其产量提高,由现时每月生产110万个增加至每月180万个。另外,亦会积极探讨增加生产线。
他澄清特区政府并没有囤积大量口罩,亦没有将口罩转送给内地当局,强调会以市民健康为首要考虑,呼吁市民尽量减少外出及注意个人卫生。
