We needed to be protected so that we can have health and my system if its pauses in macau really dont go that we dont get why didnt we just its there we got that disease lets look at. What gave them. The government has already taxed factories to produce more protective equipment for health work has by today equipment doesnt seem to be reaching the facilities thats need its this hospital has come on the scrutiny on on the cover generally its because coverage thats healthy as they are selling p. P. P. Health and i was calling for measures to prevent such incidents in the future. When this is it and dont just complain about oddly enough pieces all insufficiencies of these people we have done this it doesnt look good looks to divulge from any someones just want you to ensure that when you point it is time to distribute it if you are simply want to share that they get ready to get to get into. Health. And hes colleagues with support from the government they hope they dont get infected before its comes. Now as you heard in our report the if its just supply the much needed p. P. Is being undermined by hospital because some of them have been identified as selling the people on to the black market now that story was uncovered by one of janet guyon his famous investigative journalist he closed by the pseudonym at amir an ass i began by asking him just how he came about the story. We would prefer for a story would look at kill and. Then in covered clear we decided to identify a fake your so that people were using to treat corey while doing this we got some information from some hospitals that this items that were being do need to have found themselves on duping market we decided to look at that too it was inside as we did in the hospital and that means who wrote to us and told us that the thing something on thought could be happening in this hospital in the indeed we are glad that when we look at it we found this is going on. Right now i know that even your investigation what are your journalists posed as a somebody by the p. P. A. From one of these hospital workers who was sitting it but who have the medical staff been sending the p p e e to. The p. P. Is being sold to people who want to buy it.

Unless you give us a sense off do you do you have any idea of how much p. P. Hospitals might have lost out is it likely that this is happening at a grand scale. Well i can look at a rich hospital and i can confirm that it was happening i think on the scale the reason is this simple that you know b. B. C. Of. Has died on how much you should buy out all material things that people were dealing with told us that they had a large quantities but you know you have to balance the need for workers to use it and your story so we decided to buy their members that we thought were not affects the intent of preaching and put their lives of their real people their health wake us at risk so yes we did we got a lot of calls to buy large quantities but we opted to do less quantities because we knew that that was definitely affecting the lives of work as who people were put to the life on the line to see if to see if people were given one indication was that a particular point the hospital then decided to even produce the. Freeze masks and it was sad that even the farris batch of production somebody sold to us 100. 00 pieces i mean it goes to that level at which those people willing to say where were going and the only reason why that was but the stat that it production was because of the fact that they do need that once had finished they had emptied it to the seal and there was with the decided to be ingenious by doing something new so indeed it was a very high skill all right that is the investigative journalist in the past i remember. Is of course has to conceal his identity because of the nature he says thank you for being on al program today and us.
