The'public mask sales system' will be abolished from tomorrow (12th).
As the public mask system is abolished and converted back to the market supply system, consumers can freely purchase masks in any number of pharmacies, marts, convenience stores, and online.
Until today (11th), the last day of the system, masks can be purchased at major retailers such as pharmacies without confirming duplicate purchases or limiting quantity.
However, the current supply system for surgical masks used in medical institutions is maintained.
The government said that even after the end of the public mask system, in the event of an emergency, such as the'Mask Disruption' that occurred earlier this year, it is possible to take measures such as limiting the purchase quantity or day of the week.
