Since February 6th, Taiwan’s mask purchase restriction policy has been officially launched, which still cannot alleviate the demand for masks from the people on the island. The phenomenon of queuing up for purchase can be seen in all counties and cities. Yang Zhiliang, the former head of the health agency of the Taiwan authorities, in the program criticized Su Zhenchang, the head of the administrative agency of the Taiwan authorities, that this policy was too frivolous. He said "In ancient times there was the rule of Zhenguan, but now there is the "Zhenchang Rebellion"", which made everyone "very impressed."
did not expect that after queuing to buy masks, even toilet paper, sanitary napkins and diapers, which are indispensable in life, have been swept away in supermarkets these days. Although the economic department of the Taiwan authorities refuted the rumors, Tsai Ing-wen and Su Zhenchang also came forward to clarify, but the "Zhenchang Rebellion" triggered by the new crown epidemic is still in chaos. With the outbreak of the epidemic, the confidence of the people in Taiwan is fragile, and their trust in the Taiwan authorities is on the verge of collapse.
The mask policy has changed day by day, and the changes have caused panic
According to Taiwan media reports, there has been a panic buying of masks in Taiwan recently. Taiwan officials announced that the real-name system will be adopted for the purchase of masks from February 6. People need to use the "health insurance card" to purchase at more than 6000 special health insurance pharmacies in Taiwan, and each person is limited to 2 pieces within 7 days. Even if
uses the mantissa of the ID card to divert, the supply is still far from enough these days, and many people still cannot buy it in line.
So, Su Zhenchang's remarks about the "modern order and evening change" of masks were pulled out and slapped.
At the beginning, when the new crown pneumonia broke out in Wuhan, experts reminded to wear masks and wash hands frequently. Although the epidemic has not yet reached Taiwan, people began to snap up masks. At this time, Su Zhenchang stood up and pledged: Don't worry, the mask is enough. He also announced that he would "leave masks in Taiwan", so he implemented a one-month export control of masks. This control policy, which was clearly directed against the mainland, immediately attracted public opinion in Taiwan. Artist Fan Weiqi even scolded Su Zhenchang as a "dog official" and criticized his ban on the export of masks as vulgar and indecent. The irony of
is that after the export ban, masks are still unavailable, and the public's panic has increased. In the beginning, everyone was limited to three tablets a day, but later it was reduced to two tablets in seven days. I still don’t see the masks. Finally, Su Zhenchang and Tsai Ing-wen said: “There are currently no cases of community infection in Taiwan. As long as healthy people do not enter the hospital and do not come into contact with the patients, they do not need to wear masks. Masks should be reserved for those in need. "
has repeatedly refuted the rumors and it didn't work. After the toilet paper was still robbed of
masks, Taiwan is now rushing to buy toilet paper, sanitary napkins, and diapers. According to the Internet, "non-woven materials are used to produce masks, so these are out of stock at the beginning, so everyone should hurry up and buy them." So these days, all supermarkets in Taiwan have sold out of toilet paper. The Taiwanese economic department urgently refuted the rumor on the afternoon of the 8th: the main raw material of masks is non-woven fabric, and more than 70% of the raw material of toilet paper is staple fiber pulp, which is mainly imported from Brazil and Chile, not from mainland China, so the supply is safe.
At this time, Su Zhenchang himself also stood up, followed up to refute the rumors, and "humorously" proclaimed on his personal social website: No matter how you can "hip", we only have one "Kachen" (Hokkien) "Butt"), please remember the experience of the last toilet paper chaos. Don’t go and stock up a pile of toilet paper, sanitary napkins, and diapers until they become moldy at home. The raw materials are not in shortage. Please don’t spread rumors. Make you lose money.
However, Kuomintang Taipei City Councillor You Shuhui criticized how many "Kachen" everyone knows. Does "Dean Su" think she is humorous? Do you think it's funny? As the "Executive President", don't you feel sorry for all the people who start to line up at six in the morning? Grabbing masks and toilet paper is the people's helplessness! "
" The people on the island who "see through the truth" found it ironic. They laughed at the panic buying of toilet paper by the whole people now: because they don’t rush to grab them now, in case “Kachenchang” gets nervous again and can only buy 2 sheets in the next 7 days, you have Tell me how to live!
