The British government has said it would have large stockpiles in place to provide a continuous flow of protective items, such as masks, to health workers tackling the Covid-19 pandemic, after criticism earlier in the year that supplies were too low.
“At the start of the pandemic, meeting the huge demands for PPE (personal protective equipment) was a massive challenge,” health minister Matt Hancock said in a news release.
“That’s why we have worked every day since to ensure we have an uninterrupted supply to meet the challenges in the coming months and protect those who are protecting us.”
