国家发展部长兼财政部第二部长黄循财,今晚(9日)透过电视和网络平台,发表“与冠病共存”演说。 他谈及我国除了传统的拭子测试,也将从污水抽样检测,以鉴定某个特定族群中是否有人患病,例如宿舍客工。 他也声称,客工宿舍已是过去10年来不断改善的成果,但即使已采取防范措施,疫情还是在宿舍里大爆发。为了防止类似情况再次发生,他表示未来将建设比较能避免传染病扩散的新宿舍。 但他仍辩称,只要大量客工住在一起共用设施,风险仍存在。不论客工宿舍、疗养院或邮轮,一旦爆发传染病都有风险。 “建筑业要做出调整,意味着将由大笔额外开销,眼下政府将通过坚毅向前预算案,来帮忙承担这些费用。” 政府也透过血清或抗体测试,找出曾受过感染但可能已痊愈的人。 他指出今年4月初,我国每天进行2000次检测,迄今已能提高到每天约1万3000次。 预计6月底进入解封第二阶段 此外,黄循财也表示,我国无法永远保持封闭状态,需衡量和保障国人的生命和生计。未来几周政府将继续观察情况,若情况良好,可能在6月底之前就能进入第二阶段。

今年4月22日,一名女子被拍到对着肯德基服务店员大声斥责,离去前还向店员吐口水,行为引起网民议论。警方较后确认女子身份,并在两天后将她逮捕。 这名42岁妇女将在明日被控上法庭,罪状包括蓄意骚扰、动粗以及违法安全距离措施。 据了解,这名妇女疑因久等外带食物的准备而发怒,在快餐店前怒骂职员“全家去死”并吐口水。 一旦公共滋扰罪名成立,妇女将可能被罚款2000元,而在知情下导致受害者受伤、感到危险或烦扰,惩罚或会改成长达三个月的监禁、或不超过2000元的罚款,或两者兼施。
