New national hub to work on easing mask shortages
A new national centre will be set up to solve the face mask crisis after earlier attempts to deal with the severe shortage failed to ensure availability.
Surgical masks are medical “weapons” for hospital staff and people against Covid-19, so to make sure they are armed properly, a new body is required to solve a range of issues from inflated prices to export problems, Public Health spokesman Taweesin Wisanuyothin said after a meeting with the Covid-19 Administration Centre (CAC) on Friday.
