Hon Dr DAVID CLARK (Minister of Health): Internationally, COVID-19 outbreaks are testing the capacity of even the most prepared health systems. That's why we are putting such a strong focus on stamping out the sporadic cases we've seen in New Zealand—to flatten and suppress the curve and reduce pressure on our health service. I'm advised that 238 ventilators are available in ICU and high-dependency unit beds. There are also 44 mobile ventilators across the public health system and 24 ventilators available at private hospitals. Some operating theatres and post-operative areas also have ventilators that could be used if necessary. DHB planning is also well advanced to ensure that we have the staff available in the right place at the right time, to ensure the best use of equipment as required. The priority is to scale up capacity, and that's why the Government has invested $32 million to purchase additional ventilated and non-ventilated ICU capacity as part of the $500 million package for health announced earlier this week, to back our health professionals to combat COVID-19. Health workers are working around the clock to make this happen, and I want to thank them for this.
