〔記者林欣漢/台北報導〕衛福部食品藥物管理署昨(6)公布邊境稽查結果,華元食品公司從美國進口33萬9580公斤的「新鮮馬鈴薯」被檢出龍葵鹼超標,必須退運或銷毀。衛福部長石崇良今日受訪時表示,已在邊境攔截並退運,並未進入國內的市場。食藥署有一定的科學邏輯在進行邊境的把關,確保民眾的食安。
石崇良表示,一旦有單一廠商,有被查驗出違規的情形,就會提高他的風險等級、增加抽驗;如果是來自一個地區重複的發生,也會提高該地區來的抽驗比例;如果是這類產品普遍性的風險提高,就針對這類產品進行提高抽驗。未來也是按照這樣的規則,科學的證據、風險的分級管理。
另外,迎接國慶、光復節連假,外界關注醫療院所量能負荷。石崇良表示,衛福部內部有召開會議,盤點醫療院所及藥局的開診情形相當不錯,為了讓大家的辛勞付出得到一定的回饋,已擬定相關鼓勵措施,會在週四行政院會之後向外界進行整體說明。媒體追問是否有與春節不同?石崇良說,方向與原則是相近的。
