In June 2020 the Office of the Auditor-General released its report on the management of personal protective equipment (PPE) in New Zealand during the COVID-19 pandemic. The report raises three issues of ethical concern: inadequate stock, inequity and complacency. Acting on the report's recommendations is a critical step in strengthening New Zealand's preparedness for future public health crises.
2020年6月,审计长办公室发布了关于新西兰在新冠疫情期间个人防护装备(PPE)管理情况的报告。该报告提出了三个伦理方面令人关切的问题:库存不足、不公平和自满情绪。按照该报告的建议采取行动是加强新西兰应对未来公共卫生危机准备工作的关键一步。
