MOH, major retailers say N95 mask stocks sufficient to meet demand if haze worsens
The inter-agency Haze Task Force has advised retailers to monitor their stock levels and replenish supplies where necessary, as the country prepares for a rising risk of haze.
Major Singapore retailers, including Watsons, Guardian and FairPrice Group, report having sufficient stocks of N95 masks to meet demand if the country's haze situation worsens. The inter-agency Haze Task Force is advising retailers to monitor stock levels and replenish supplies as needed, as Singapore anticipates a rising risk of haze this year.
The National Environment Agency expects brief periods of haze, rather than a prolonged duration, similar to the impact of the El Nino phenomenon currently in effect. Government stockpiles of N95 masks are also available to supplement retailer supplies if needed.
